Palpitation: Anxiety is one of the reason you may have this symptom bu can not ignore as it is a sole cause. Ekg when you not symptomatic is not going to be diagnostic either. You need some work up for that, rule out over acting thyroid and cardiac monitor to rule out intermittent arrythmia. See your primary care who will coordinate your plan of care

I went to ER because of chest tightness. They did two EKGs, chest x-ray, blood tests, bp, heart rate, etc. All fine. Can severe anxiety cause that?
