Hi,
palpitation may be due many causes including anxiety, thyrotoxicosis and heart disorders, in your case it appears to be related to rythm disturbances in heart, so you need holter rythm monitoring to confirm diagnosis, if it is WPW syndrome radio ablation of accesory tract is best treatment.
take care
