Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX

After going through the medical query raised by you I can very well understand your concern for your situation and I would like to assure you that this is all because you get anxious and stressed due to which body secretes certain hormones which stimulates the sympathetic system of body thereby causing increased heart rate leading to palpitations and dry mouth. It’s a kind of Protective response of the body to deal with situations which you or your mind feels to be stressful.

I would like to suggest you to start doing some yoga and meditation and take the help of a behaviour therapist to combat your anxiety levels and to deal with stressful situations.

It’s your anxiety to face the audience that is creating this trouble for you, so start practising to present in front of small group of people first and slowly you will get used to it.

I hope this information will relieve your worries and with guide you on a right path.

Kind Regards
Dr Bhanu Partap
