1st of all go to a Dr and get it assessed... if it is fluttering all the time it could be a very dangerous rhythm. A Dr will know what to do. You need a heart monitor to assess the rhythm, then if it is indeed "fluttering" medications and/or a procedure known as ablation either radio or cryo could resolve it.
