Palpitations: Palpitations or feelings of noticeably rapid, strong or irregular heartbeat can be due to stress, exercise, medications, caffeine, overactive thyroid, etc. Check out http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/heart-palpitations/basics/definition/con-20034780. Then take her to see her Family Doc or Cardiologist. In meantime, no more coffee or caffeinated soft drinks.
