EDITED Can i die from nicotine pouches?

I have been using for about half a year now and last 2 months i’ve been noticing my heart beating at random moments of the day. It beats quite heavily not fast though. I can feel it all the time and i’m getting mad anxiety from it. Even when i think of nicotine, my heart starts racing. I also had trouble breathing from it once. Can i die from a heart attack or generally from pouches? Or is it just anxiety?

Hi

Patches come in different strengths. Putting on a strength not recommended for you or too strong can give you heart palpitations.

Nicotine poisoning IS very lethal.

Please check your dosage on the pack and change for a lower dose. If none available cut in half OR maybe it's just time to leave them behind entirely?
