What Causes Faster And Irregular Heart Beat?

Hi, my fiance was complaining last night of extremely rapid and irregular heat beat. he then work up in the middle of the night with the same and was shiverring really bad. Could this just be anxiety (we have a lot of things going on this week) or should we be looking into something else?
