Does Anxiety Cause Heart Palpitations?

Possible stress
Detailed Answer:
Hello There !
Thank you for asking Health Care Magic.
I have gone through your question.
Poking feeling that last some minutes , comes and goes in your age , could be associated with stress.
Give me some more informations by answering the questions below so i can have a clear idea of your situation.
-Are you in stressful situation while these episodes happen?
You don't have any other symptoms , right?( pain that goes in the neck or left arm, breathing problem, dizziness...)
-Do you have any dissiease that you did not mention?
If the answers are no , i would still say the cause is stress.
I would suggest to have a meeting with your local doctor to check your heart, rule out any heart problem ( organic problem) and for a possible treatment if it is neccessary. Meanwhile:
- Try to take some time to relax ( start to do Yoga, do sports or something else you really enjoy to do) ,
-Try to avoid stressful situation. ( Try to take less working hours )
-If you drink coffe or any energy drinks , try to avoid them.
Take Care !

Detailed Answer:
Hello again xxxxxxx!
Thank you for the follow up and for the extra informations .
Working during the night/ different working schedule and being tired during the day shows that your body is under stress ( even you don't think avout it to much) , you need to have the time to relax and do things that you enjoy.
Certanily "anxiety "/stress is not a life threating situation but i understand that it bothers you when you experience the poking feelings.
Yes drinking soda and poorly eating for sure is not good for health. These food may affect/ damage your stomach/ esophagus -give spasms
I would suggest start with :
-eating healthy .
-Relax / Ask for a change in your working schedule ( yes would be a good idea), so your body can have time to relax.
- Do a check up at your familly doctor .
Take Care!
Wish you good health.
