Latest update. Had an echocardiogram which showed severe left atrial enlargement. Saw the cardiologist today and he said the underlying cause needs to be determined. Most likely blood pressure and/or sleep apnea. As well as Eliquis I have been put on additional BP medication and will have a stress test in a couple of days. After that I am scheduled for a camera down my throat to behind my heart to check for any blood clots lurking there. If there are none they will do a cardio version immediately after to try to put me back into sinus rhythm. I will have a sleep study done when I return from the U.K.
He did not think it was necessary to cancel my trip. Everything else in my heart is working well. Will keep you updated!
