Heart beating in Throat

Anyone else's heart feels like it's beating so hard that you can feel it in your throat? Mine has been feeling like this since I woke up yesterday. It's weird and now kinda freaking me out.

I had this happen when I was 8 months pregnant with my first child. The best thing to do is sit in a comfy chair and breathe in through your nose to a count of five and out through your mouth to a count of five. Do this until your heart rate calms down. Do not panic (that's what I did) and I ended up getting myself into a state. This type of thing can be caused by anxiety (mine was) but just doing the breathing exercise my GP gave me did the trick. If it carries on I'd go and see your doc x
