Sorry to come up with something else, but for about a month now, especially at night like right now, my chest/heart feels like it is fluttering. No pain just the fluttering. What can cause this?

I would tell your doc about this because it could be something that requires some attention. It could be related to blood pressure, etc . The more health issues we have the more we have to pay attention to things like this cause it can be related to more issues or even a drug reaction. We don't have enough hours in the day to keep up with all our issues, do we. It could even be related to autoimmune issues. You have so many things going on right now that your doc may even want to do more blood work, etc. Good luck. Irish

Susan,

I don't know what to tell you except I think you should tell your doctor.  I think you would feel more confident if you got this checked out. 

Hopefully it is nothing, but if it's been going on for a month, I think you had better play it safe.  Let us know what you decide to do and how you are feeling.
