Alivecor detected possible a fib but some of it looks just like pvcs to me. can you have runs of pvcs while in afib? thanks

Yes, but: Need to be sure the "PVCs" are not just ventricular aberration. This occurs when the rate is fast with a pause and the next beats are wider (aberrant). PVCs won't have this relationship to rate.
