What Causes Palpitations And Dizziness?

I am 17 years old, and my heart is beating 84 beats per minute (at resting). Also I feel kind of weak/dizzy, and have been sleeping a lot, (I just woke up, for about the 3rd time, and it is almost 10 at night)... is this bad, and/or should I seek medical help?
