I feel frequent heart beats, like it accelerates when I'm onto something new in projects and assignments. I perform well in the long run but initially it feels overwhelming. How do I solve this?

Hello!

There can be many different reasons for heart rhythm disturbances. We divide these into dangerous and harmless heart rhythm disturbances. If the palpitations are accompanied by chest pain, shortness of breath, dizziness and you have to stop the activity you are doing due to severe discomfort, then this can be signs of dangerous heart rhythm disorders. In this case you should contact the doctor as soon as possible for further examination.

The symptoms you are describing do not sound alarming, but I cannot give you a definite diagnosis without a more detailed medical history and an examination. In order to be able to give you advice on how this can be reduced/treated, we must first have an idea of what type of disturbance it is. Therefore, I would recommend that you book an appointment with your doctor for further examination.

Kind regards from the GP
