hello,
This can occur otherwise normally, but we need to evaluate it. You will need one ecg and if normal, holter monitoring. Also, Serum electrolytes like sodium, potassium, thyroid test is also needed.
Do you have any stress or anxiety, if yes it need to be taken care of. Also, if you smoke or do alcohol, needs to be stopped. So get this test done and review with reports
