Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Since you are strong family history of heart diseases, we should definitely rule out arrhythmia (rhythm disturbances in heart) for your fluttering sensations.
So better get done blood pressure monitoring, ecg, 2d echo and Holter monitoring (24 hours continuous recording of Ecg).
If these are normal then no need to worry for arrhythmia or other heart disease.
Sometimes stress and anxiety can also cause similar symptoms.
So avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
