Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!

I have gone through your question. I think you must decrease your

caffeine intake and take medicines for fluttering (SVT). If fluttering persists

or becomes more frequent an electrophysiologic study (EPS) with ablation

may be needed (Need to meet an electrophysiologist )

Hope to have been helpful!

Wishing good health,
