I occasionally have exercised induced A fibs and I am an elite athlete type. It is pretty scary stuff because they often show up months or years apart. I wasn’t as worried until I read about the stroke risk. Scary stuff. I am back to the cardiologist. Anyone else deal with exercise induced or just general A fibs?

Mine came on after, ironically, I began BP meds.

Doctors probably hate the internet but my cursory research says that one particular drug produces arrhythmia in 31% of patients.

Occasionally I have noticed this same thing but continued exercise usually clears it up. I’ve had a-fib since 1994 but it is controlled with Betapace. A very nasty situation for anyone who has it and it is like having a chest full of monkeys.
