Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you for asking!
I read your query and understood your concerns.
You are experiencing more ectopic beats and palpitations more in the evening before sleep and in the morning is normal and is explained with the following reasons:
- The quietness of the night and the early hours of the morning make the person to be aware of palpitations and tachycardia.
- In the early hours of the morning there's an increase of adrenaline and other hormones that cause tachycardia and palpitations.
As you can see what you are experiencing is normal and we expect to happen to you.
Since your heart was normal and nothing wrong was found on cardiac examinations and other causes are to be responsible for your symptoms. The most common extra cardiac causes for palpitations are anxiety and GERD.
Anxious patients have larger adrenaline levels than normal people and this is associated with an increased risk for arrhythmia, palpitations and tachycardia. However you should keep in mind that since your cardiac examinations were normal you shouldn't worry about those arrhythmias because they are harmless.
Hope this was of help!
Wish you health!
