Afib or flutter?

What is the difference between Afib and flutter? I’ve been having bouts of quivering in my chest - side of rib cage really - and it’s really worrying me, particularly as I also have PVCs and a history of RVOT tachycardia. I’ve had a recurrence of tachycardia over the past month - heartbeat of around 100 for about 2 hrs. Any thoughts would be really welcome. Feeling scared and confused.
