Heart palpitations due to vagus nerve ?

I’ve been diagnosed with mild Afib. Most of my Afib incidents were associated with excessive Alcohol which I have stopped entirely. Possibly sleep apnea as well and sleep study is scheduled. That said I noticed that several times since I’ve been diagnosed, I sometimes experience what feels like heart fluttering and strong beats shortly after a meal. Does not last long and doesn’t record as Afib on my i10 series iWatch. I’m thinking this is a Vagus nerve moment. I know that digestion commands a rush of blood to the digestive tract from a previous diagnosis after fainting in airport after big meal between flights. Thanks for posting and as I talk with my Cardiologist and PCP, I’ll update my comments.
