I think it's hard for people with symptomatic afib to understand that thinking, but if I were in his shoes I don't think I'd take an antiarrhythmic either.

Ditto what Wolfpack says about being symptomatic. I find it hard to believe that some people don't feel their afib. I wonder if body weight/mass/leanness/muscle mass play a role in being symptomatic. I have good muscle mass, I am lean, I am 6' tall and weigh 165. I have a woman friend how is asymptomatic, and is just the opposite my body type. When I am in afib, there is no way I can sleep on my left side - it's like being on a 25 cent vibrating bed (overstated a bit).

@GeorgeN : Before my first ablation, when my episodes were longer (15-24h), the bumps felt louder a the start of an episode than a dozen hours later, near the end of it. I thought it was a sign I'd soon revert to NSR, but it could be a sign that my body was adapting to the situation...
