Heart Palpitations
Heart palpitations are also referred to as arrhythmia and can occur when the heart is unable to process signals called electrical impulses. This can cause the heart to miss or skip a few beats, which can result in a fluttering sensation.
While arrhythmias can be harmless, they may also indicate serious conditions such as coronary artery disease. Other symptoms may include shortness of breath, dizziness, fainting or feeling fatigued and anxious. A person experiencing palpitations should seek medical attention to rule out serious conditions.3‘Heart Arrhythmia - Symptoms and Causes.’ Mayo Clinic, 19 Nov. 2019, www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/heart-arrhythmia/symptoms-causes/syc-20350668
