Feeling weak on left side of the body
Having breathing issues, feeling short of breath, numbness and weakness on left side of body (arms, legs, chest), ringing in the ears, fast heartbeat. There was no physical exertion, symptoms have lasted for around 40 mins now. Have had previous incidents where I felt as if heart had stopped beating for a split second before getting back to normal. After that found difficulty breathing.
