Suggest Treatment For Heart Palpitations

Certainly as long as it doesn t cost me anything! I have been feeling very sleepy and lethargic with heart palpatations and a feeling that my head is going to blow off. Almost like a pressure as if someone is choking my neck if you will type pressure especially while lying down. I take bp meds and I don t always do that in a timely way. I have nodules on my thyroid and wonder if that is the problem. Seems I m just problem-matic in my older age??? I am 58, I feel great other than these symptoms that are now starting to bother me. Oh...I also have had a partial Hysterectomy...one overy? Thank you. Hope you can answer.
