Hi!
I have had this problem with Effexor and Zoloft when I first started them or when I adjusted the dose. If you were not experiencing skipping beats before you started the med, then you can probably assume it's the Effexor. If it does not go away in a few weeks, then start the cardiology investigations. In the meantime, make sure you are taking Calcium/Magnesium and Potassium. Defeciencies of these vitamins can also cause a fluttery heart.
Feel better,
