If you have had the symptoms evaluated and found no underlying heart disease or dangerous rhythm, the primary concern is to relieve your symptoms and anxiety. Finding nothing dangerous does not necessarily mean that heart rhythm is not the source of what you feel. I usually recommend a long term monitor to try and catch the abnormal rhythm and tie it to the symptoms that you feel. Your doctor can arrange this.

There are also tools that allow you to record your rhythm with the telephone. If a monitor finds nothing, you may want to look into one of these apps. If your symptoms only occur every few months, its great to try and catch it with the electronic device that goes every where that you go.
