welcome to HCM.
Racing of the heart can be caused by many things. The most common are medications. Coffee, tea and energy drinks are also known to cause racing of the heart. If your heart starts beating fast after you take your morning tea/coffee then I would recommend on cutting down on your caffiene intake. If this does not help, then it is of very important that you see a cardiologist. He can order a 24 hour ECG monitoring to record the electrical activity of your heart and make the diagnosis.
Thankyou for giving us the opportunity to help you. Have a nice day.
