What Causes Palpitations While On Verapamil?

I have been on Verapamil 80mg 2x s daily for about 23 for rapid heart; for the past few weeks I have noticed some rapid heart rate but also a pounding heart, like it s struggling to get blood through or something. I have a doctors appointment to have it checked but want all the information I can before going because most of the time the doctors here just ignore the problem. It is not caused from anxiety or anything like that, and it gets so bad I don t sleep well
