Questio: is this your first Covid booster or have you had one or more each year?
My personal experience is as follows:
A month after the second booster in Oct 2021, developed AFIB. My cardiologist would never admit that there might be a cause in effect relationship. However, he did acknowledge that he was seeing more cases. Coincidence?

@tct
This is my 2nd booster shot. I had my first booster in October 2024, which did not cause any noticeable side effects other than a sore shoulder. I had PF ablation for paroxysmal Afib in January, 2025, with no recurrence of Afib since (touch wood). I have a history of palpitations, but they seem to be more frequent since my most recent covid shot. Hopefully it's a transient thing and they will soon subside to a tolerable level.

@tct same thing happened to my husband and I now have SVT. My cardiologist said it was possible the Covid booster caused.
