Ah the million dollar question! I would say yes for now. If in five years time it hasn't returned than maybe not but the underlying cause has not changed and DCCV is not a cure. To me it is do I have AF now? 2008 was my last ablation and no AF for now.

Live for the moment.

Glad to hear you are back in normal sinus rhythm, long may that continue.

I think if you have more than one episode it's classified as AF despite returned to NSR in between

Not what you're looking for?
