Fluttering?

This depends on what you mean by "fluttering"?

Atrial flutter is a definate arrhythmia.

Palpitations are a definate symptom ( this is a medical term that may be experienced as 'heart flutterings').

Welcome to our exclusive club. ;

Selwyn is right: a lot depends on how you’re defining fluttering. It’s very common to have a lot of new and odd feelings after getting a PM - even for many months. I’m 5 years into it and I still get weird sensations. Nothing ever shows up on my interrogations so that’s good. My team has explained to me that my device only records ‘events’ lasting longer than a few seconds. 

Be sure to mention this fluttering at your next appt. If it lasts longer than a few seconds, you might consider having your device interrogated because A-Flutter is a serious issue that needs to be addressed.

Happy New Year, Friend.
