        <title>It&amp;#039;s been a while</title>
        <description> Hello everyone!!!
It&amp;#039;s been awhile since I&amp;#039;ve posted. I&amp;#039;ve been in NSR since my last ablation with Dr Natale in 2020. For those that don&amp;#039;t remember I&amp;#039;ve had a total of 5 ablations. 3 of them were with Dr Natale. 2018, 2019 &amp;amp; 2020.

I wore a 7 day monitor back in August and these were the results. And a TEE done in October. Here are the results of the 7day monitor. 4 episodes of brief atrial tachycardia with longest lasting 13 beats as well as 2 nonsustained VT episodes with longest lasting 5 beats.  PAC burden of 0.47% and a PVC burden of 0.01%. I always make an effort to get some good exercise in when wearing on of these to capture any anomalies.

The TEE results were not as good. It appears I currently have a thrombus in my LAA. I&amp;#039;m scheduled to have a follow-up TEE early April to see if anything has changed. My chadsvac score has jumped from 2 to 4 pretty rapidly. I&amp;#039;m guessing that there will be a watchman implant in my not to distant future.</description>

            <description><![CDATA[ Yes Carey the 7 day monitor results are very pleasing. I had a little over 150 miles on the bike during that week. <br />
I&#039;ll never be able to properly express my gratitude to Dr Natale, Shannon who got us connected and the uplifting support of this group of fellow afibers.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ I am pleased to see that you are among many who know their circumstances accurately, and realistically, and that you have options.  Well done!]]></description>
