What Causes Periodical Heart Flutters?
Started to feel a little heart flutter periodically today. It would beat quickly for about three times and then go away but then come back now and then throughout day. I do not feel any other symptoms. Wondering if or when I should get it checked out or if I should wait to see if it passes.

Hello,
As per my clinical experience, the transient worry or anxiety issue does manifest with transient pulse or heart beat alterations. If the same persists over a period of time, even after proper rest, it is strongly recommended to get it checked at an ER with EKG report.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
