Brief Answer:
Monitor only for now!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this Afib and all the inconveniences this must have caused you. I understand your worries but the initially response to treatment makes waiting a reasonable approach. I will suggest you do close monitoring and stop at nothing but that for now. Also, continue with the regular solotol prescriptions. The pulse all in itself isn’t dangerous and this will sooner than later return to the normal values. Be calm and optimistic about this

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and do feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
