What Causes A Fast Heart Rate?

For about 10 yrs now I will have periods where my heart rate will jump to over 200. I have worn a halter monitor to no avail. I dont have to be doing anything physical either. I could just be sitting still. Also at times it feels like there is a butterfly/tickling/spasm of sorts in chest. Any suggestions?

HI
Well come to HCM
I actually advise my all the patient those comes with such complaints, the importance is your clinical symptoms if you do not have any symptoms then just forget about the heart rate, more over your test also turned unremarkable, then no need to worry about this, hope this helps.
