Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Well you told me about your palpitations. There are a lot of causes like caffeine intake, abnormal heart rhythm such as atrial fibrillation, supraventricular tachycardia but in most cases of abnormal rhythms heart rate will be more than 120. In this case it was around 105. Which I feel it might be due to anxiety or chores that you carry immediately after food or if it food had contained caffeine products might be the cause. As you did not have any other associated symptoms I suggest you to carefully watch for any future similar complaints and visit physician for further work up.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
