Brief Answer:
Need not worry.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,welcome to HCM forum.

Palpitation is a very common symptom and most of them are benign and temporary,lasting for a few seconds only.Even common situations like anxiety,sudden emotional changes etc can cause this.
If you have a normal blood pressure,and normal rhythmic heart beats,there is nothing to worry.You doctor might have checked these.

So,right now you need not worry;just forget that.If this recur again without any reason,we can have further evaluation.

Hope this will answer your query.
Wishing you good health.
Thank you.
