56 year old female, worked throughout the day in a fairly stressful situation cleaning out the office of a friend after his untimely and unexpected passing.  After returning home, I was laying on the sofa when my heart started palpitating or fluttering causing me to cough.  This happened several times and subsided after ten minutes or so.  I did have a heart attack, although minor, in 2007.  Blockage was too distal to receive a stent.  Currently being treated for hypertension and taking a statin for high cholesterol.    Should these heart flurries concern me?
Hi there After going through your query I understand your concern. I would like to tell you that if you got palpitations and being already a heart patients then you should be a little concerned. Possibilities of increased plaque deposition is there and will need a further evaluation. Its recommend for you to get an ECG and Echocardiography done and consult with your cardiologist regarding this. Kind Regards
