What Causes Rapid Heart Beat?

I am on ramipril for high blood pressure and yet when I rest my heart beats really fast. Why is this. Not so long ago I was monitored for 24hrs and was informed by the cardiologist that my heart beat, to quote is remarkably normal . I don t feel unwell, have given up smoking about 2 months ago going to the gym so don t understand.
