Personal comments	I have had palatations for many years that the Dr.s could not find.(just found some infrequent PVC'S and PAC's. (by the time I went to doc or ER no longer a problem) For the past 4 years just ignored the sensations. Also have an on again off again heart murmur. Had Rhumatic fever as a child with no apparent heart involvement.When I called my doctor was feeling very ill for about a month. Said to go to ER-I then had a 185 and very irregular pulse. Found AF and gave me cardizem to bring HR down after over 200 HR. Not doing very well. More or less housebound.
