Afib Triggers: Mine is my neck or body position, yours?

Some people get tachycardia or atrial fibrillation when they get into bed, or they get it when they bend over, or when they stand....so some of it is positional. The person means that being in bed and being too warm can trigger his arrhythmia or tachyarrhythmia.

Thank goodness that doesn't happen to me.

For some strange reason, laying on my right side will trigger my Afib. I have found my Afib to moderate when I practice the valsalva maneuver which is nothing more than holding your breath (10 - 15 seconds) after a large intake of air.
