What Causes High Resting Heart Rate?

I have been having a high resting heart rate for 3 months now. Between 80 to 100 beats per minute all of teh time. I am only 34 and normally my heart rate is 60 bpm. It has been so bad that it is keeping me awake at night. I also have this feeling of a lump in my throat that makes it feel like it is blocking part of my airway. Any ideas?
