Hi,
Fever itself causes increased heart rate and palpitations. Loose stools may lead to hypotension which may lead to palpitations.
Use antipyretics like paracetamol thrice a day for five days. avoid caffeinated drinks and smoking. Avoid alcohol. If symptoms do not improve, then please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
