Hello.
Thank you for your question to Vinmec.com website. Heart palpitations often cause a feeling of palpitations, a pounding heart. Usually a fast heartbeat is cause for concern, but sometimes it's harmless. In a few rarer situations, tachycardia can be a symptom of serious heart disease, such as an arrhythmia, that requires specialist Cardiology treatment.
Here is a complete guide to heart palpitations from Dr. Tran Thi Thanh Truc, Cardiovascular Center of Vinmec Central Park International Hospital. Please read in detail:

Bleeding in the early stages of pregnancy is okay?

My period is about 15 days late. I tested with a test stick and it showed two faint lines. But then I had a lot of brown bleeding. I went for a transvaginal ultrasound, the doctor did not see the gestational sac and asked me to do a beta HCG blood test. My result was 121. The doctor scheduled me to do another beta HCG test in 2 days. But today I have a lot of red blood like menstrual blood. So doctor, can you tell me if I am pregnant?
