1. Since your EKG came normal, even then get an opinion of a Cardiologist who will then look for other common causes of increased heart rate like: exercise, emotion, anxiety,excitement,anemia,thyrotoxicosis, fever.

2. Alcohol,smoking,caffeine: all causes tachycardia thus avoid the same, and also spicy food.
