Palpiations: Yes, it is physiologic for one to feel there heart beating especially when on the skinny side. Your heart does move with normal beating though can be due to abnormal heart beats or rhythm which you do not want to miss. I would recommend an EKG to be sure there are no arrhythmia though this is likely normal.
