Hello

I can understand your situation but as I told you that it will take couple of weeks to resolve completely. It must have reduced now than before and will completely recover in another 10-15 days.

Also remember occasional missed beats like sensation is a part of normal heart electrical activity and should not be bothered about.

However if they persist or occur frequently then few tests needs to be done.

Kind Regards

Also while I was at the doc.. I asked her if I should have a ekg.. When she listened to my heart and I told her the flutter and thumb I felt in my chest only last not even a sec she told me no.. That it was nothing if it only lasted a sec.. Nothing to worry about.. Even while I was feeling it more.. She said a sec wasn't nothing to worry about... That all this was my body getting rid of the toxins and repairing it's self... Do you agree?.. Once again thank you for taking time to answer questions for me.. I will b sure to give a great review
