my mom and sister have heart problems, could this make me more susceptible to heat exhaustion?

my mom and sister have heart arrhythmia's, and i have trouble with getting heat exhaustion more quickly than most people. if im out exercising too long, even if i have been drinking water, i feel lightheaded, sick, and my heart feels fluttery. are the two related? if so, what can i do to prevent the onset of my symptoms?

Carly

No they do not have any relation since you dont have any heart problems of your own. to try and prevent heat exhaustion drink LOTS of water, and powerade and eat. Also rest frequently in the shade.
