Ha Pompom, and I inadvertently typed out my reply twice! :-)... When I had just about finished the first draft, I got wrapped up in a long distance call during which I promptly lost the first version ... or so I assumed ... until after recreating my second reply from scratch and then checking back many hours later only to find I had posted both versions of the same theme, unbeknownst to me.
Cheers!

As this electrical remodeling process becomes more engrained as an alternative to NSR and the heart gets more resigned to being out of rhythm, usually by roughly the six month mark of progression of the arrhythmia some degree of physical structural remodeling will often start to occur. This increase in progression. is marked by detectable fibrotic scaring of the cardiac myo-cytes lining the endothelium of the two atria (or ventricles, in the case of ventricular disease), and signal an overall progression of one’s battle with cardiac arrhythmia.

I got my first episode of AF around 1998, this is 2019 and I am in NSR as right now. I get episodes of AF probably once a month, sometimes more and sometimes less. After a few hours I still convert to NSR, for which I a m extremely glad. So is my heart resigned to this pattern or are there different patterns? I had an Echo done about 6 months ago and it was the same as the one I had done a couple of years ago. Of course that can all change tomorrow but for the last 20 years I am still in NSR the majority of time.

George N doesn't get AF anymore due to the diet he is on.
