Brief Answer:
Palpitations

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

The symptoms that you have described are called as palpitations. Palpitations can be a result of many conditions including high blood pressure, anxiety and heart issues. Before labelling it to anxiety, I will suggest that you get evaluated. You should get an ECG to start with. Also get detailed blood tests and blood pressure. You may consult an internal medicine specialist for this.

Hope this helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.
