AF seem to,like me at the moment had an episode on Saturday and then again last night. I am still not in SR but just missing beats now and again is that etopic or still AF? I don't feel it just when I take my pulse it is not regular.

You would need an ECG to determine that.

Do you know about Kardia (Alivecor) - a gadget you attach to your smart phone with a downloadable app which will enable you to take your own and then you will see very clearly if it is AF or ectopics.

A feeling of missed beats, usually, indicates ectopics and an irregular pulse AF but it is not always easy to distinguish oneself by just how it feels,

As CD says, the only way to find out is to have an ECG.....speak to your surgery asap.....good luck, John
