PSVT: Difficult to tell but could be due to a condition called PSVT when the heart start beating so fast. if this recur, talk to your provider about getting a heart monitor to confirm it

Cardiology: consultation is certainly necessary. You should get a Holter monitor and an echocardiogram, comprehensive blood testing for thyroid disease and metabolic dysfunction. There is also a possibility that if this was an isolated incident, it may have been a panic attack.
