Hi Kai - Had not seen your most recent postings when wrote my last. I did experience changes as heart healed during blanking. Was told not to worry about PAC's or a few skipped beats. Fairly normal if not excessive and don't impact you. Does not sound like a problem for you. Big thing we all experience is worry and stress as Dana pointed out. In fact my doc scolded me for using the kardia to often. Give it some time to fully heal and try to relax. I know, easily said - ha

great feedback...(need to put kardia down...it occasionally says possible afib, or unclassified, even with normal heart rate....but doc reviewed them all and said normal sinus rhythm with pacs.. I guess the pacs can be coming from the heart healing process(hopefully)...what made you decide to go to mayo?.....while I (and doc) expected my case to be straight forward pvi, seems it may have been a little more complicated..he said the left side was more challenging and he burned more on that side than anticipated.(maybe why it is taking more time to heal)....and if I have to think about a second try at ablation, had the thought I really need to consider a top doc at a premier hospital...anyway, need some additional time as I am only 4 weeks out from the first try....good news, is that have gone another 10 days with no afib....interesting how the docs all say don.t let the pacs bother you...yeah , right....
