Hi Hotcakes. I get this too. It's so frustrating sometimes. I find I get it quite bad at night. perhaps because my mind wanders and my anxiety is a little higher.

When I got this initially I would just work or walk through it, breathe deeply and try to ignore it, sometimes I get it quite bad though and just have to go to bed. I find it very tiring. I had ECG's and a month long heart monitor and they found nothing out of the blue so I just live with it and work with it as best I can.
