Please refer to the detailed answer below

Detailed Answer:
Hello Ma'am

After going through the medical details provided by you I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that considering your age group first of all we need to find out what sort of heart rhythm is going on and for that an ECG will be required.

Also few other blood tests needs to be done like
1. Complete blood count
2. Kidney function test
3. Serum electrolytes
4. Urine routine examination

After seeing the reports of all these tests it's possible to point out the underlying cause.

Other common cause of faSt heart rate is Stress, Anxiety.

I hope this information will be helpful.

Kind regards
Dr Bhanu partap
