Why Do I Have Fluttery And Burning Feeling In My Chest?

For several weeks now I keep getting this fluttery feeling in my chest. It almost feels like my heart is sluggish or something but I have had several EKGs and have worn a Holter monitor but nothing shows up. I've been to a GI doctor and have had a stomach emptying study (appears to be slow in emptying) and have a EGD scheduled for next week. When I get these feelings it really scares me as I feel as though it is my heart. Along with the flutter feeling is a warm, burning feeling across my chest. Is it possible it is my heart or do you think it really is something going on in my GI tract?
