Scared!

I constantly feel like my heart suddenly twitches and my pulse doesn't correlate with it . U can't figure out if this is my heart or muscle spasms. My heart is driving me crazy at only 16yrs .I feel like im ruinng it . I cant make a proper decision about exercise. I fear that I may overdo it and damage my heart and have an arrhythmia.

How is it normal ?

Cant it form blood clots or go into a fatal rhythm by fluttering?

To an extent the heart can race for short periods not too fast though but I guess your doctor has done ECG and bloods?

It doesnt feel like racing rather it feels like quivering very fastly

Thanks to google , it is the symptom of atrial fibrillation

Yes all tests done

Mine feels like that all the time, I'm 27 I've had all the tests done and everything has come back normal. They say it's anxiety and the muscles and nerves causing it around the heart and not actually the heart. Still worries me.

Watch some of this cardiologist videos eased most of my worries about my heart and some of this stuff is normal and we don't notice it normally. youtube.com/user/YorkCardio...

Littraltly having the same issue all test came out normal and im still freaking out

Hi. I get this. Feels like my heart is racing but my pulse is fine. Also feels like my heart jumps a beat with a butterfly sensation. I've 3 ecg's blood tests and chest x ray all come back clear due to go for another ecg. This only happens to me when I lie down. Go get yourself checked out it will put your mind at rest a bit. I'm only young myself at 35. Hope this helps you.
