How To Treat Frequent Heart Flutters?

HI, I have been experiencing heart flutters off and on for many years. Blood work all normal. I am 59 yrs old, female with hx of total hysterectomy in 2007. Headaches now for 3 weeks, back of head and side of head, feels like migraine but not seeing the usual light patterns. Have had a-fib in emergency room and have had ekg moniter for home. Had an ultrasound done for heart all seems normal. The heart flutters are horrible and put me in a instant bad mood, feels like heart is straining.

if persistent atrial flutter remains,then you should undergo electrophysiological study of heart and if required radio freqency ablation for the same.you will have to consult electrophysiologist, cardiologist who has mastered in arrhythmias treatment. I think that will sort out your problem.
