From Afib to Cardioversion to PVCs

anyone have a thought on the chances of successful cardioversion for mild Afib morphing into serious PVC's after a couple of months after the cardioversion?

You didn't identify how the cardioversion was accomplished, electric shock, or medications? In any case, I doubt there is any relationship between a cardioversion of AFib and PVCs. I'd guess being in NSR is better than AFib relative to developing PVCs, and for everything else for that matter.
