Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have been feeling that my heart beats fast but in reality is not. It started two days ago when i was sitting down in class, the two days before i had drinked cofee and didnt get enough sleep. But i feel rested and im prety sure the cafeine is not in my body anymore. What can be happening to me. Oh just yesterday i felt the need to cry.
I went through your details. From the given information, it seems that you are young. Palpitations are usually due to stress and agitation. You should watch your heart beat after you struggle physically. Your heart beat will be high. After a period of rest, it will come to normal. But if you take rest and obsess your heart beat, the rate will slightly go up. That slight change will feel as if beating faster and fuller. I suggest you not to obsess with your heart beats, otherwise you will be troubled with anxiety disorder. You may consult a physician to rule out any other organic causes. Take care.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications. Good luck.
