I have tachycardia every now and then along with shortness of breath; it happens for no reason. I'm scared I won't be able to breathe one day. Why does this happen? Should I see a doctor?

A healthy adult heart normally beats 60 to 100 times a minute when a person is at rest. Tachycardia is an abnormally rapid beating of the heart, defined as a resting heart rate of over 100 beats per minute.
Since the heart and lungs work together in a close relationship, a problem with one of these organs almost always affects the other.tachycardia and SOB(shortness of breath)are strongly related
Many things can cause or contribute to problems with the heart's electrical system. These factors include:
-Damage to heart tissues from heart disease
-Abnormal electrical pathways in the heart present at birth (congenital)
-Disease or congenital abnormality of the heart
-High blood pressure
-Smoking
-Fever
-Drinking too much alcohol
-Drinking too many caffeinated beverages
-A side effect of medications
-Abuse of recreational drugs, such as cocaine
-Imbalance of electrolytes, mineral-related substances necessary for conducting electrical impulses
-Overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism)
and there are several types of tachycardia ,you need to be seen by a cardiologist
