I find it annoying GPS put so much down to anxiety. I find I am anxious because I have symptoms the medics are dismissing.

Hi. If your GP says the flutter is nothing to worry about, try not to worry. I know it is not easy but this will only make your anxiety worse and bring more fluttering on. It also could be Withdrawal from the Amiodarone! I am not Medically Trained so stick with your Doctor :)
