Hi,

When you feel your heart beats fast its because the rate has increased. It might be because of simple reason like anxiety or complex on like some problem in the current of the heart.

It is important to know because if the rate and rhythm of your heartbeat is changing then you might require medical help.

I would suggest getting a 24-hour Holter test done to look at the heart rate and rhythm over 24 hours. This will give an idea of whether its something minor versus a rhythm problem.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
