Q: Past AFib and CC Ablation, new problems

I had atrial fib in 2007, and had a cardiac catheter ablation procedure in June that year that fixed it. Everything was fine until May, 08, when I went into AFib again, and I had a followup ablation in June. It is now 10 months later.  I am a healthy 58 year old, non-smoker, non-drinker, exersize regularly, low salt diet, everything within normal range, with a normal resting HR of 55 and a 130/80 BP. It is now 15 hrs after the rapid HR and my HR is down to 85. I did an EKG (my wife is a nurse and she brought a machine home) and it says "Sinus rhythm with short PR, with premature superventricular complexes, left axis deviation. I would appreciate any advice. By Monday, when the Dr office is open, this could be back to normal - who knows. Am I going to go into AFib again?
