A member asked:
Twice in week 10 second bursts of irregular fast, like many beats in a row ,then normal. had the odd svt ectopic on 24 holter.had some yrs now, afib?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is impossible to: differentiate Afib from other arrhythmias by physical exam when the duration is so short. AFiB is common, >25% of people over 40 have it and previous heart surgery increases your risk however you can't confirm it without electrocardiographic proof. Ask your health care provider for a 30 day monitor to see what you really are experiencing.
