What Causes Fluttering Sensation In The Chest?

This afternoon I have had this fluttering sensation in my chest. It has happened twice (3 to 4 pm) got very tired and worn out. Got some better, then around 6 pm same thing happened. Not a lot of chest pain just a little tightness. B/P 116/66 P-80 Right arm, 109/61 P-91 left arm. Had a bad stroke 1 year ago ( Dr. said it was a miracle that I survived) so dizziness and balance problem seems to be the norm for now. I don t feel really bad, bad but I don t want to have another stroke. Would this justify going to the ER or do you think I need wait and make an appointment with my cardiologist?
