[CPAP] Heart flutters

Yes, they exist, and doing some window-shopping a minute ago (on Amazon just because it's easy and I'm lazy) I even saw a couple of 'em under $100.  News to me!  I hadn't known that EKG machines had made it to the category of Consumer Electronics.  Of course, the ones that do cost hundreds are certain to be much more accurate & featureful than the cheapies.

I also got a laugh from Amazon showing me, after one search for "electrocardiogram", the options:

RE: Heart flutters
This is going to sound ridiculous, but I get heart flutters too... and it’s always within 20 seconds of gas, food moving, or something digestive. ALWAYS. My heart doctor said there’s no way and rolled his eyes, but I’m telling you, I ALWAYS have some sort of gas or food movement or something nearby. Something about stimulating the vagus nerve. For what it’s worth. Godspeed.
