imbalance in electrolytes, thyroid levels, stress, anxiety,anaemia, drugs like broncho-dilators,or any cardiac problem.
please get evaluated for serum electrolyte levels,thyroid profile,ecg & cardiology opinion.
in your case atrial fibrillation being the cause you can start with betablockers or rate controlling drugs to prevent cardiac & related complications..
