Or, if they come and go in even longer time periods (ie. a few very bad times, but only once or twice a month), and they think it might be a serious condition, they can implant a heart monitor in your chest.
I did that, and I've been quite pleased with it. Mine is a Reveal (nice name, huh?) by Medtronic. An easy surgery, and now I don't worry so much. The recorder constantly records heart patterns, but only "saves" if you tell it to do so (aka, when you feel the symptoms). Then the doc can look at what you experience, and then say if it is cardio-related, or not.
Hopefully it won't come to that, as hopefully they are not heart related, but just some other kind of abdominal flutter sensation. But, just to let you know, if the Holter is inconclusive, there are other options.
Best of luck, and health!
