@bens1 I’m 13 days post ablation for a flutter. I do have the loop monitor and at the 7 day review it showed no flutter or a fib at all. I am disappointed that these devices aren’t more closely and then the patient notified. Thus far I’ve found no one EP who says they do this. My big evaluation is 10-28. At that time if it’s still showing no a fib I’ll drop Eliquist. I’m walking to miles per day now and will return to the pool this week. Looking forward to it. I do notice the occasional PVC but I think it’s more because I much more aware of my HR. I’m told most all adults have daily PVCs. Is this true?

@stan52 Yes, , I was told by my EP that this is true. The difference is that the vast majority of people have a low enough number of PVC’s to not impact the long term health ( pumping function) of their hearts.
