I am still on 25mg Metoprolol. My local cardiologist (actually the PA) did not have any real comments regarding the low heart beat other than to say that below 50 is when they are concerned. My EP is located in Denver where I had the PFA done so all contact is electronic. I am in the process of getting their feedback. I really want to get off of all the meds.

I would do exactly as you are doing. A lot of close self-monitoring, and keeping a list of questions or observations to run past your expert/EP when you get the chance. Certainly he should not want you on a beta blocker past about the 6 week mark if there's no apparent ectopy because he would want a veridical assessment of your heart's true condition when the Holter monitor is issued to you near Week 10.
