Hi
fresh episode of fluttering in background of hypertension and heart murmur
i adviced to evaluate further
if you dont have any dizziness or chest pain or black out then no need to panic
consult your family physician
do basic EKG test and if any abnormality found in EKG or symptoms persist then go for 24 hour holter study and consult cardiologist
take care
