Hello and thank you for using Chat Doctor. I carefully read your question and I understand your concern. I will try to explain you something and give you my opinion. You should know that normal heart rate ranges between 50-100 beat for minute. When it exceeds 100 beats for minute in Norma rhythm and normal conditions we talk about sinus tachycardia. A person might experience sinus tachycardia for different reasons like stress, coffee or energy Chat Doctor. So, to understand if it is just a sporadic episode with high frequency or something else I would recommend some examination like a cardiac echo to evaluate heart function and valves, a full blood analyze to exclude anemia, hyperthyroidism and a holder rhythm monitoring to evaluate your heart frequency during day and night. After all this we can better understand what we are dealing with and how to treat it. Mean wile avoid excessive coffee consumption or energy
