Vascular: At your age, you shouldn't have to worry about your carotid artery. Carotid artery disease in a 30-year-old woman is extremely rare. However if you feel your heart beating in your throat, that is a palpitation symptom which can be further evaluated by your physician. There are several causes for palpitations, and the first thing you should do is minimize caffeine in your diet.
