The sensation you are feeling is called palpitations. They can be innocent or a sign of a more serious condition such as an arrhythmia of some type. At this point no one can tell you any more than that. If you have a heart murmur, there is no question that you should see a cardiologist to get the proper tests scheduled. Otherwise consult your doctor about your problem.
