Isolated Atrial Fibrillation Episodes: Is Ablation a Good Fit?

Every once in awhile I dip in here and suggest the book "The Afib Cure" by Day and Bunch. The title is a bit misleading. It does offer a different perspective on afib in terms of managing triggers and lifestyle factors to get off meds, but it also covers the types of medical approaches discussed here.

I just had the feeling in my chest that precedes afib and felt some flutters. I got up from the couch and took some Gas-X (simethicone) and walked around a bit. Belching resulted and chest feels fine. This is not the first time that simethicone has helped me. (I read about someone in the ER getting IV simethicone for afib!)
I realize this is entirely too easy and I am fortunate. I understand that things are much more complicated and onerous for many many people but just wanted to share my experience.
