Flutter in stomach

I had a PM put in Dec 10. Does anyone get a flutter sensation in their stomach? It's kinda of odd. I go back to the Dr. next Tues and just want some input to see if anyone else has this issue.

Thanks
Debbie

Flutter in Stomach

Be patient. Things should get better. My experience hasn't been the best. To start off I had a lead come loose because I came out of the hospital with a terrible cold. Then they had me on BP medicine which resulted in my BP dropping out. I felt like I had someone sitting on my chest. Since they've taken me off of that I fell 85% better. I'm still not back to work full time but hopefully that will come. Part of that is because I don't want to risk falling with the weather the way it's been.

I've got a list of question to ask my Dr next week. I'll try and find out what causes this flutter feeling. I've also wondered if it's just nerves. It's pretty daunting thinking you have something in your chest making your heart beat. Especially when you thought you were invinsible. I'm 60 and never had a heart problem. The last time I was in the hospital was when I had my son 38 years ago.

I'll try and remember to give you an update.

Do you take any med or vitamins?
