A member asked:
How do you know if what you're experiencing is palpitations? i know its an awareness but are there any other specifics that could point to them?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many causes: The sense of your heart beating fast or irregularly could be a palpitation, an anxiety symptom, an irregular heart rhythm or just normal awareness of you heartbeat. Contact your doctor for an evaluation. Studies such as an ekg or longer heart monitoring study should provide an answer.
