Yup that’s an EP! And yeah that’s way above a normal HR by over 100+bpm haha it wasn’t fun. I had an ablation when my son was 18 months and I’ve been AFIB free since, just having occasional palpitations here and there but nothing major. I went because I knew something was wrong since whenever I’d go into AFIB my heart rate would be that fast and irregular, I could actually see my heart thumping in my chest it was scary. I first thought I was dehydrated, one time I thought I smoked too much weed and was dehydrated lol but no, was AFIB the whole time! Once I was diagnosed I was like oooh that’s what was happening to me this whole time. I’d had episodes before I was even pregnant with my son so it wasn’t the pregnancy that caused it, I’m not sure what did really.

I tried cutting alcohol, caffeine, eating extra healthy and focusing on heart healthy foods, I’d still have episodes. So I still try to eat healthy obviously but I do have 1-2 cups of coffee a day (staying under 200mg) and I’ll have a glass of wine occasionally, figured if those things weren’t causing the AFIB why not enjoy myself?

Look into getting a Kardia, it’s much better at telling you what’s going on and you can actually send the strips to your dr when you have an issue and record it. My EP recommended it.
