hello
I have gone through your query.Thanks for using HCM.
first of all you should have ECG exactly at a time when you have palpitation going.If you have SVT on ECG then you may continue Calaptin,Otherwise you should first find out cause of palpitation ,I suggest you to get Thyroid functions test done.This may give us clue to diagnosis and further line of treatment
My best wishes
