Full evaluation: You need a full evaluation to look for treatable causes and to asses the risk, if any. Blood sample for chemistry, magnesium, echocardiogram, stress test, & chest x-ray at a minimum. Avoid caffeine, excess alcohol, and stimulants. Get plenty of rest. Avoid stress, if possible. If you still have troublesome symptoms, there are a variety of medicines that are effective.
