If you have had: All the medical checks and know it is probably due to anxiety, use relaxation techniques to calm yourself. Consider working with a psychologist and learning stress management techniques.

Holter monitor: If you experience frequent and bothersome palpitations, you should document what your heart rhythm is at the time of your symptoms by wearing a holter monitor for 24hours. You may be having benign premature beats which are made worse by caffeine, alcohol, nicotine, stress and anxiety. Your md can order this test.
