Cause Of Increased Heart Rate After Climbing Stairs

After I climb the stairs to go to bed I get heart flip flops when I lay down. Why? I am overweight , non smoker. Walk 2 miles everyday. Had a cardiology workup a year ago and I was fine. Just get palps but less than 1 percent. Still this new thing at night when I go to bed worries me.

As this problems starts after climbing upstairs,you require again for cardiac work up.

go for tread meal test to rule out any blockage in your heart vessels.

Ok and bye.
