Does Yaz Birth Control Pills Cause Palpitations And Abdominal Cramps?

I'm a little worried. I've been taking Yaz for about a week now and I've noticed uncomfortable symptoms like abdominal cramping and what seems like a rapid heart beat. Right now I'm trying to fall asleep but I keep thinking about the symptoms and wondering if I should go to the emergency now or stop worrying about it and just discontinue the pill. I tried to feel for my heart beat and it seemed like it beat 60 times in a minute which I guess is normal. I could just be panicking.
