Palpitations

It hurts to live with palpitations.  "The meaning of PALPITATION is a rapid pulsation; especially : an abnormally rapid or irregular beating of the heart (such as that caused by panic, arrhythmia, or strenuous physical exercise)."  ~  random internet source

I would add that in my experience, palpitations are often caused just by sitting in my recliner, feet up and mind deep into something entertaining on YouTube.  And there go my palpitations, skittering around in my chest.  Hurts!
