For a few years, i constantly feel my heart beating (always regular, about 70 bpm), which is annoying and impacts sleep. gotten worse over last yr.

Heart beat: You may be aware of your Heart beating if it's too forceful due to elevated blood pressure or valvular heart disease. It may also occur in anemia or hyperthyroidism. Anxiety can also cause pseudopalpitations. Your physician can reassure you after an examination and ordering appropriate tests.
