Palpitations: If you are having palpitations, you may want to see your family physician to see if there is a heart problem. This can be diagnosed with an ekg.

No known linkage: Fetal alcohol syndrome was first described in the 1960's among offspring of alcoholic mothers, many of whom died from their affliction within a year.The full spectrum of heart related effects included a transient heart murmur & holes between the lower or upper chambers.This was due to interference with heart development. Heartbeat issues are not part of the FAS description.
