Probably Not: While it is very unusual for young people to develop heart failure, it can happen. Rarely a virus, rheumatic heart disease, heavy alcohol intake, serious heart arrhythmias or some other very unusual condition can occur. If you are concerned, i recommend you see your doctor.

Heart flutter: Highly unlikely this is heart failure. Sounds like you are having a food allergy reaction.
