AFIB is very common. If you talked to cardiologist they list it as the achilleas (spell) tendon of cardiology.

You have to look at triggers. If your AFBIB and PACS pick up try to see did I eat something different, did I do something different, drink something different, worry about this or that and reactions to your stressful times. Does it help to exercise, does it help doing a hobby, just keep a log and share with your cardiologist.

If you can log them you can see a pattern and then can help yourself by trying to reduce the triggers. What will bother one (caffeine, drinking, stress, eating certain foods) will not bother the other person and vice versa to what trigger the AFIB and VFIB.

I have to watch stress and anxiety as have learned now from trial and error that it is a big trigger for me.

@jc76 tku for your detailed explanation. Much appreciated

@jc76

Thank you those are great tips. Question are you taking any meds? If so, which ones please advise.

@jc76 what do you do for your anxiety? I can’t find anything that helps.
