What Causes A Rapid Heart Rate?

After about 5 or 6 hrs sleep - I awake with a rpid heartrate or sometimes it feels like a flutter. I happens while I am sleeping on my left- my favorite side to sleep. Now so much on the right side mostly the left side. Ly on back or take breath and hold it and the flutter will go again in about 30 seconds. I'll had the heart monitor and also I have had the heart nukeular heart test and the heart is fine and no blockage. What do you think is causing this.
