Anxiety: I understand your concern about palpitations. It is likely due to Anxiety caused by stress. At age 24, let Wise Woman in you ask about Stresses of: • Relationship conflicts • Separation • Loneliness • Finances • Work Please follow with Psychiatrist for: • Therapy for stresses in your life for yourself and with your partner • Breathing Relaxation • Guided Visual Imagery • Meditation • Yoga

Palpitations: I recommend getting checked with an EKG and an outpatient heart.monitor for 48 hours to determine what the heart rate and rhythm are when you write down the times you're experiencing palpitations. Most often the palpitations are benign and only a nuisance, but serious arrhythmia has to be ruled out. A cardiologist is best to consult for evaluation, testing & advice in collaboration with your OB.
