About Palpitations (the broader symptom)
This summary describes Palpitations, the broader symptom. Sudden Onset Palpitations is a more specific topic.
Palpitations are feelings or sensations that your heart is pounding or racing. They can be felt in the chest, throat, or neck. MedlinePlus notes that the heart rhythm may be normal or abnormal during palpitations, and that palpitations are not serious most of the time.

When to seek care
MedlinePlus says to see a health care provider if you have never had heart palpitations before. Call 911 if they occur with loss of consciousness, chest pain, shortness of breath, unusual sweating, or dizziness or lightheadedness.
