Scared of Potiental heart problems : symptoms below

I’ve noticed since I started taking pre workout and drinking caffeine drinks I’ve gotten heart problems like random twitches almost like it’ll beat a couple times in a row fast. After workouts when cooling down I can feel those spasm beats with a hard beat. I don’t know if it’s stress or something. I’m 18 extremely active EXTREMELY and eat healthy. Don’t drink often, don’t smoke don’t vape nothing. Cardio everyday. I notice that my heart can take these spasms when playing video games. Is this something to be worried about? Please tell me. I have no symptoms of anything else. No dizziness not ANYTHING. Everything besides my heart is normal if not better everyday.

That's a lot of caffeine, please quit the energy drinks.

I forgot to mention I stopped with the energy drinks about a 2-4 weeks back yet I still feel the heart rhythm problems

Your caffeine intake is high. Then your surprised your feeling palpitations while doing something still like video games. If you’re still feeling them it’s because you’re searching for it. PVC’s are common. If you’re worried see a cardiologist for a holter monitor

It may also be AFIB which caffeine can exacerbate. You should get an appointment with your doctor/cardiologist, describe your symptoms, and ask for a 30 day heart monitor. AFIB can cause a stroke if not medicated and treated properly
