Pfizer vacine, bradycardia and Afib
I have Afib since 2017. Since 2018 I am on Tykosin( dofetilide) it has kept me in sinuous rhythm. Most of the time my pulse rate was in between 50 to 65 ( Fitbit shows). Three weeks after I took my second dose of Pfizer vacine for corona my heart rate has changed from 65 to 85. I am no more in bradycardia. As there has been no change in my medicines ( Eliquis 5 mg and dofetilide 0.25) , my life style, diet etc. I guess it is the side effect of Pfizer vaccine. In my case it is good as I am out of bradycardia but if I already had higher pulse rate it would have triggered it.
I will inform my cardiologist about this change but I do not know how or where to send this information so that it reaches authorities who can take action or be on alert.

I to had been experiencing heart arythmia. Something felt off two weeks off after my first vaccine in March second in April followed by very bad aryythmia with a halter monitor. I thought it was my Hoshimotos which became hyperactive. It gradually went away wants by blood work started coming back to almost normal for thyroid. This changed 3 times since middle of April. Upset with Endocrinologist that my thyroid reacts to stress. Meanwhile she’s calling for blood in three weeks. Dah. Upset.
Hi,
Sorry to know that you too had your heart condition triggered after vaccination. How are you now? What follow up treatment they gave you?
To control my Afib I had to submit to cardio version. My pulse rate came to 87 resting heart rate. It was on 17 of May and my pulse rate s constantly going up. ( see the images) I am not sure if it is okay? If I am out of Afib ? Will consult my cardiologist as I am concerned about these pulse rates. Apart from this fir last two weeks I am feeling bit lightedness or as they call brain fog. Though it occurs only for a friction of a second I worry as I do not know the cause. Due to vaccine or due to cardio version I am confused.
Not sure exactly no one pays attention to side affects, bit I have hoshimotos thyroiditis which became overactive around the same time which an cause palpations also. It’s been a rollercoaster. Thanks for your concern. I don’t know if the vaccine triggered all of this I’ve had five ER visits starting in middle of March two weeks after first shot and the palpations started two weeks after second shot. CDC is saying that people with autoimmune disease may not be fully vaccinated. I will not get another vaccination. Despite having hoshimotos I’ve never had the flue prior to this or have been sick.
Your pictures are crazy. Was that a stress test. We’re you on a heart monitor. I guess I would be concerned. I hope you get some answers. Did they report it to the CDC. Good luck to you.
Hi, I am 56 with no special health issue to report. 73 kg for 1m76 doing regular activity. I am an engineer.
I confirm that it can happen. At the 2nd injection of Pfizer less than 2 weeks after I got a Bradycardia, dropping as low as 48 pps, this for 4 weeks time. I am usually at 62 pps. I had as well 6 others side effects. But the Bradycardia is the most serious one.
I am used of vaccines, doing every years the one for the flu.
I had just due to calendar chance a RDV with a cardiologist, due to my age, for a check, 16 days after the injection.
I told him about the bradycardia, but he did not want to speak about the vaccine.
He gave me an appointment for 6 days after the consultation where he found no issue, for a effort test.
At the effort test things did not went well, he was surprised and tried to get a scanner appointment at urgency request. He could not get it live then I had one 4 days after.
The scanner did not shown specific issue.
Then I had no news from him, and from my regular doctor, the relation with the vaccine was evacuated, in fact, the doctor did not like that I had a suspicious idea against the vaccine.
My twin brother, who I pushed being vaccinated got 2 weeks after its 1st Pfizer injection a Zona that reemerged (he had one many year before). In addition he had tachycardia and he was extremely exhausted during almost 3 months. He had to be hospitalized because the zona did not ended after 3 months’ time. The doctor he meet before going to a specialist refused to associate the issue he encountered with the vaccine. In addition, they did not provided the proper treatment he knew and instead gave him ineffective medicine. The fact he pointed the vaccine made him having very bade relation with them.
I am aware of many thing about the covid-19 as I have family in the research team who identified the Clofoctol, that is the only repository medecin being very effective invitro, againts the SARS-CoV2 and people from the “High health authority” in France (HAS) to. The organization that is evaluating the risk of medicines in France (ANSM) had to create a page on Internet to have patients providing information for the side effect as the doctor, for most of them, scared by the administration do not want to report them.
Her are 2 factual cases. I am favorable of vaccines; however, I am definitely favorable to evaluate a risk benefic for every medicine to be take. Forcing people to use medecin that can be dangerous for them is not just stupide it is somthing that the low should not permit.
