Hello,
I would explain that your symptoms could be related to anxiety. Anyway, before coming to this conclusion, I would recommend performing a resting ECG and some blood lab tests (complete blood count, blood electrolytes, thyroid hormone levels) in order to exclude other possible causes, which may lead to palpitations.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
