Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, we should first rule out arrhythmia (rhythm disturbances in heart) for your palpitations.
So get done ecg, 2d echo and Holter monitoring (24 hours continuous recording of Ecg).
If all these are normal then no need to worry for arrhythmia or other heart diseases.
Sometimes stress and anxiety can also cause palpitations, shaky feelings
, chest tightness etc
So better to consult psychiatrist and get done counselling sessions. Try to identify stressor in your life and start working on its solution.
You may need anxiolytic drugs too.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
