Hi,
Yes, in fact, this is very common in anxiety. Palpitations are very common in anxiety and so are other symptoms like tremors, breathlessness, sweating, feeling suffocated, abdominal discomfort, numbness, tingling, feeling as if one is going to die and so on. Blood tests and other investigations are usually normal. In my opinion, ask your doctor to evaluate you on the lines of an anxiety disorder.
Best wishes.
