anybody have this symptom

I have not been diagnosed with hypothyroid yet even though I show all the signs (getting bloodwork done next week) but I have a question: Did any of you ever have heart palpitations or racing? It just started last week for me and I had an EKG which was normal and he said no afib, so I'm wondering if it's my thyroid?

Palpitations are listed in the signs/symptoms of both hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism:

HiPalermo, I had both palpitations and anxiety before I started thyroid medication. Both reappear if my Levothyroxine dosage or key vitamins are not optimal. Do post your results when you get them!
