Yes it could.: Heart palpitations are not always dangerous, but they should always be evaluated. I recommend seeing a Dr to get a detailed history and hopefully identify WHY you are getting palpitations,(caffeine, alcohol, thyroid etc) then a physical and EKG, possibly blood tests just to make sure it is not something serious. Never ignore your heart! ❤️
