Hi Ash,
Palpitations can be classic Anxiety symptom.
Unfortunately they create a vicious circle for anxiety sufferers .
Anxiety creates Palpitations which in turn create more anxiety which in turn creates more Palpitations and so on until you break that cycle.
Propranolol is a beta blocker which should slow down the heart rate and stop it racing.
You could also try mindfulness and meditation to still your mind and bring it back to the present moment.
I had Palpitations, 24 hour ECG monitor and Ultra Sound Heart scan, all good - Anxiety related.
Peace
