Hello! understand your situation, but you don't have to worry. With what you refer, it does not look a serios problem. The problems with heart beat can have different causes. In your age, the possibility that this comes from organic factors, such as a heart disease, is very low. I think that your situation is transitory. However, if the problem persist for a long time and becomes more frequent and disturbing then I would recommend that you consulte a cardiologist and make some examinations to evaluate your cardiac rhythm and function, such as ECG, echocardiography and a holter rhythm 24 hours. After these test's redults and evaluating the heart rhythm and it's nature, the cardiologist will take a decision to start or not any medication. I hope to have helped you with my answer.
I wish you good health!
