Hi welcome to health care magic.....

Here you are having complaint of palpitation and tingling ...

So cardiac cause should be evaluated ...
But your EKG is normal ....So No need for much worry...
Here excess stress if you are taking than it can lead palpitation and such presentation .....

So if anxiety there than it can lead such presentation ...It is treated with anxiolytic drug and behavioural therapy ...
Regular exercise and yoga beneficial ...

Take care

If still symptoms continue than echocardiography needed ...

Advise : consult cardiologist for that
