WOW - looks very uncomfortable.

G'day CD,

I must say I was surprised when I saw this and compared it to my 'NORMAL' reading. Mind you there was no mistaking my symptoms, massive bloating of the gut and the pain under the ribs, mainly left side ribs pain. Bloody awful. Now I gotta find out what the ECG is telling me - message there (apart from the physical feelings I've just described). The offending food - that night I had good old 'bangers and mash'. So there had to be an ingredient in the sausage that caused all this. I rarely have sausages. Haven't had any since :-)

Thinking about this damn AF thing, given that I am asymptomatic, the only two things that trouble me 9 years plus after first diagnosis is 1] Bloating and associated pain and increased BP and HR, and 2] several times a year my HR drops down to 46 or thereabouts and I go cold (the ice man cometh). I am planning to try and capture these events on the ECG in future (whenever they happen) and see what professional advice I can get.

Apart from these two things I'd never know I had the AF diagnosis.

I’m no expert but they look like ventricular ectopic beats to me.

Goodness, that looks like an unhappy heart - it does look like ventricular ectopics but there seems to be no compensatory pause.

I wonder about preservatives in sausages? Certainly, that would set my heart going and it sounds as if your vagus nerve is complaining bitterly. I hope you are feeling a bit better today.

Sausages and bacon have a bad effect on me. That certainly looks like a very unhappy heart 😖

Looks like my reading when getting ventricular ectopics.

I think it looks like abberrant beats just from movement. I see a regular QRS. AND the analysis says it's RSR. Not to worry.
