Have Chest Palpitation. Healthy And Follow Good Diet. What Could Be The Reason?

For the past year and a half i have suddenly been experiencing chest palpitations that sometimes result in mild cough.
i'm female, thirty years old, more active than average person, not over weight, good diet(all four food groups plus occasional pizza) sometimes drink coke but mostly decaf mint tea.
I dont feel stressed when it happens, not prone to anxiety, but its been happening every other day and usually when i'm sitting down. also sometimes feel light headed if i stand up too quickly. afraid of the answer!

Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Sudden palpitation and sometimes turn into cough.
It seems to be a case of,
Allergy,
Anemia,
Anxiety ( although you not accepting it)
Tension,
Most serious cause may be
Arrythamia ( Tachycardia due to unexplained reason)
Since there is palpitation is there that too with cough, please get in complete check up of heart with color doppler test , if possible T M T to rule out any underlined cause of heart ailment.
Get in blood foe lipid profile and sugar.
Good luck Dr. HET
