Hyperthyroidism, that is excess thyroid hormone is the body can cause both palpitation and excess Salive along with increase in appetite, weight loss , sweating .
The best way along with S.Tsh which is routinely done to rule out thyroid pathology . Get free T3 / Free T4 . they are end hormones and more specific for ruling out excess or decreased hormones .
Another cause is anxiety.
Hopefully I could help .
