On a side note, when I was diagnosed with Afib in December 2024, I contacted Mayo in Phoenix in January requesting an appointment. I went to Mayo because I surgery their previously and they had my medical history. My Patient Portal was still active as was all of my insurance and contact information.

After providing EKG, Echocardiogram and blood work I all I received was a kind of a form letter that said that they did not feel a need for an appointment. Told me to contact them if things got worse. Or words to that effect.

If it were me, I would make inquiries. But that aside, and I'm the type of personality where I gotta know, and then I gotta understand....if you know what I mean....so that I can stew over what might be coming or prepare to make a choice between two or more options presented for me to mull over...get my ducks in a row...I would want a useful running diagnostic to show any PROGRESSION of the disorder. So, I would purchase a smart watch, if I didn't already wear one with the capability to measure an ECG, or get a Kardia Mobile for a few bucks, and use it every time I felt off...or could tell I was in arrhythmia. You go to your next appointment waving three or six sheets of paper from a printer showing what you downloaded from either device so that your specialist can see, for him or herself, what has been going on when THEY weren't looking.
