Thanks for any reply you can give. It doesn't sound like you have chronic, continuous afib from the symptoms you describe. You may have had another episode of PAF several days ago as well. The stabbing chest pain most likely isn't anything to worry about since you had a normal stress test 2 years ago, however, you should still see your physician soon, just to be sure. I hope you find this information useful.
