events causes events?
If you have Afib, PAC's, PVC's or others. Does having an event make it more likely to happen again? I had an event/episode last night and I feel like I am on the verge of another for a few days after each event. Do you guys know of any studies that can confirm or deny this? Do any of you get that feeling after an even

I can't say for certain or no of any studies that prove it though I am sure someone has done a study but what I do know is after a bout of tachycardia the heart is likely a bit irritated depending on the duration and intensity so it would not be surprising to feel some symptoms afterward or have a higher risk of it happening again. Pacs and pvcs can cause someone to fall into tachycardia, at least the kind I had avnrt was triggered by my pvcs. Ectopic beats can flare off more when the heart is irritated so I would assume that one could fall into a cycle. It seems logical though I don't think it necessarily will always happen. But it is possible your heart is feeling a bit irritated and not necessarily going to fall into afib again. but it has definitely been stressed out a bit and will likely feel some effects from that.
