I was diagnosed w mild? Afib after I contracted covid....
My heart rate stays between 59-63 & b/p (on meds) stays within normal range. I bought the kardiamobile device & it hooks up w your phone & gives you a EKG which my Dr will accept. I cannot tell when I am in Afib so I depend on Kardiamobile to monitor it. I take a low dose of Eliquis 2xs a day After I saw a Cardiologist. The ER doc who confirmed my Afib said he didn't think I needed blood thinner bcuz my Afib is mild But Do what the Cardio recommended. My husband did have Afib but does strength training, short runs & has Not had a episode in years.

My A-fib was verrrrrry noticeable. Jumping and fluttering! No heart trouble until the Pfizer double jab. Then my mastocystosis escalated to MCAS. With up to nine bouts of diarrhea per day, I was losing electrolytes obviously. I've been an avid supplement taker for decades but nothing would stay in me.

Oh, blood clots, too. All of the above self-diagnosed. How can one self-diagnose blood clots? I could feel specific veins throbbing and could even have traced the blood vessels with a Sharpie--a squiggly line of throbbing (about an inch long) at the back of my skull (left side) a couple of times. A squiggly line of throbbing at the inner aspect of my left thigh (again, about an inch long) a couple of times. Now? I take 1/2 of an adult aspirin every night at bedtime. No more isolated throbbing blood vessels.

Why self-diagnosed? I don't have a doctor. Haven't been to one in decades. Why? I've been under the care of creeps, pervs, liars and incompetents. Yep, they're out there--males and females both.

My A-fib is much improved with exercise. When we don't take a gentle postprandial stroll, I get on the treadmill and walk 7 minutes at 2.5 miles per hour followed by 28 more minutes at 3.2 miles per hour. I've also noticed, despite the remarkable improvement, that neck position can cause my A-fib to reappear.

So, is my A-fib the direct results of the vaxx or due to the loss of essential nutrients?
