it depends upon condition
visit a cardiologist
cardiologist will decide
usually can be done when ever u get an appointment fast heart may interfe at some level but not big issue .
so straight away is that no effect of heart rate
It can be done anytime even during symptoms until heart rate is too fast that may creat problem for reporting.

for palpitations and slow and fast heartbeats, you should get ECG with long lead II (rhythm strip) DURING SYMPTOMS
And 24 hour Holter monitoring.
also, you should get TSH, FT3, FT4 from Aga Khan lab.
Echo is not the first investigation for palpitations, unless you ashtray have a heart or valve condition
