Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
hi my name is maria i,ve experience a breathe taking flutter a few days ago. now i experience sudden heatwave throughout my body and a feeling in the chest not pain but uncomfortable. all centralize in the middle of chest. and i keep taking deep breath.
I understand your concern, and would like to explain that your chest fluttering sensation may be related to a possible paroxysmal appearance of a cardiac arrhythmia.
A careful medical evaluation should be done, including a physical exam, resting ECG, some blood tests (complete blood count, thyroid hormone levels, cardiac enzymes, blood electrolytes level, PCR, etc).
If suspicions are raised a cardiac ultrasound and an ambulatory ECG monitoring test should be done.
Only after a thorough evaluation, it would be possible to appropriately address an optimal treatment.
Hope to have been helpful! Greetings! Dr. Iliri
