What Causes Tachycardia And Palpitations?

My cardiologist has me wearing a heart monitor because I have had some weird palpitations that I don't know what they are. I just had one about an hour ago and the heart monitor center called me to say that it was severe enough to fax my info over to the Dr. on call at the hospital. He then called me to say (I don't remember all the words but something white tachicardia?). He told me that if it happens again to go the ER immediately. He told me not to worry - but how can I not. Can you tell me what this is and if I should be worried?
