One clue: gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Several years ago when I had more frequent episodes I went to an internist who suggested I try Nexium (the purple pill) for thirty days. After that I had no symptoms for over one year and seem to be fairly under control with an occasional flutter. Look into it. Good luck!
