Any illness can possibly stress you enough to have an Afib event. The illness itself can cause the stress and most likely the stress from a vaccine might be enough; after all the purpose of the vaccine is to kick start your immune system. That is a stressful event. My wife goy shingles after getting a flu shot.
I think the question is do you convert back to sinus in a few hours or a day?

Absolutely agree-I was just stating that it kicked me in to AFib. I stayed in AFib most of the day Saturday and went back into sinus around 4pm that afternoon. I just was not expecting that effect from the vaccine; but I do know anytime I am sick I am at risk of going in to AFib.
