What Causes Palpitations During Nights?

I am a 40 year old female, I have had heart palpitations for the last 3 weeks at night time only, EKG is abnormal, Echocardiogram is normal, angio CT normal with 0 calcification and 0 blockages, blood work is normal, cholesterol good, blood pressure good, wore a heart monitor for 24 hours, that was also good and no palpitations showed, so what is it?

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
No need to worry for heart diseases as your extensive cardiac reports are normal.
Night time palpitations are commonly seen with stress and anxiety.
So consult psychiatrist and get done counselling sessions.
Try to identify stressor in your life and start working on it's solution.
You may need anxiolytic drugs too.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.
Avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
