    Jorge, I’ve had PD a number of years now. I’ve had a rising heart rate, and tachycardia episodes, some lasting up to 3 hours, at 122bpm! The Neurologist told me it was all PD related, that PD was attacking my autonomic system! So, he put me on Propanolol, which helps a lot, but, occasionally I still have tachycardia episodes. My heart was thoroughly checked out, about 8 years ago, and tests showed it was ok. Just recently one episode lasted nearly 4 hours. I took 2 Sinemet after 3hours, and took a Propanolol, a little early, 2 hours into the episode. It was a bit concerning that it lasted so long. I did not have shortness of breath, or pain! So, with you having the symptoms u have, that is different from mine, in a way! Good luck!
