hi Rd! there could be many reasons for the same. these are: anxiety or stress, effects of increased blood volume, so yr heart has to work extra hard and hence palpitations, consumption of food or drinks containing caffeine,cold and allergy medicines that contain pseudoephedrine or an underlying heart disorder, such as pulmonary hypertension or coronary artery disease or thyroid disease. if u continue to have palpitations please consult yr doc and get further investigation done.
