I recommend you request an ECG and an echocardiography. Both methods are non-invasive and safe. Echocardiography can detect any unsynchronized work between the heart chambers. If the echocardiography is OK, then the condition might be caused by anxiety. DISCLAIMER: "Ask a Doctor" Questions are answered by Dr. Nikola Gjuzelov, General Practitioner.
