What Causes Fluttering Sensation In The Chest?
Very weird unexplainable sensation in my chest for about two weeks now. I am a 64 year old woman on high blood pressure meds. It s not pain but almost like a fluttering sensation and awareness of my heart beating almost like it s off beat sometimes? Breathless as well. Is this something I need to worry about?

Regarding your symptoms of fluttering sensations in your chest with skip beats palpitation on a hypertensive medications I am suggesting that you are gradually developing a heart murmur yes it is something to worry about
In view of this please do following test
Chest x-ray
ECG
EKG
Meanwhile please see a cardiologist specialist with the results and for expert clinical assessment Councelling and adequate drug prescription
I hope this helps
