Prior to the vaccine I had one episode per year for three years. Went to the ER at first episode because I had no idea what was happening. That was when I was diagnosed with A-Fib. The next two events, I would just double up on the Cardizem and return to NSR within 24 hours without going to the ER. Two weeks after the first shot, I went into A-fib-- for a week before going to the ER at which time I had my first Cardioversion since they couldn't get me back to NSR by medication. At follow up Dr appointment we discussed the possible link and of course there is no direct link and Cardiologist staff said they weren't aware of any connection. We did a heart cath to see if any other problems and all was fine. At follow up to the cath, Dr again said there was no known link so I went directly to get my second shot.

Two days after the second shot, I ended up in A-Fib for two weeks and could not get myself back to NSR so after speaking with Cardiologist, we scheduled another cardioversion as an out patient instead of going to the ER. Met with Electrophysiologist and scheduled an ablation. And as said earlier, of course no one is able to prove a direct link--- They also cannot disprove it. I do know a couple others who have experienced the same and of course know others with A-fib that saw no difference.

The symptoms after the shots were severe and the event lasted a long time versus very light symptoms and short duration It has been a week since he last Cardioversion and still in sinus rhythm however I do register somne PAC's once in awhile but that seems to be decreasing in frequency
