    AFIB or VTACH scares

    Any advice on how to know when to take these skips seriously? Like how many is too many that you need to go to the ER and make sure its not a dangerous issue? I have a halter scheduled for March 18 bc of such a big increase in ectopic frequency but what if I am in some other arrhythmia? I cant wait 3 more weeks if thats the case. My last halter was 5 years ago and my stress echo was 15 years ago all normal but old tests so def need new ones. I am 39.

    I experienced an episode of afib with RVR (rapid ventricular response) in 2016. I can't speak for everyone, but for me, afib felt undeniably different from my usual palpitations. It actually felt like I was having one big constant palpitation, and that's no exaggeration.

    Keep your appointment for March 18. It sounds like you'll be fine, IMO.

    I've had long runs of them. A constant run of them for 30 seconds. Haven't had them in a long time. My anxiety meds get rid of them.
