Afib symptoms Between Episodes

Posted by idda @idda, Sep 30, 2022

I just recently had my first afib episode, but have been having symptoms of dizziness, weakness, chest pain, that are typical of afib for several years. I experience these symptoms almost every time I exert myself. Is it possible to experience afib symptoms even though you are in normal sinus rhythm?

As to your direct question, there are of course other possible causes for the common symptoms you list, but in my case, at least since I got an ECG watch, they have been associated with AFIB for me. One thing I have noted though is that my capacity for normal activity and even exercise while in AFIB is either improving or is better than I thought it was before I started monitoring. I also experience AFIB quite a bit more often than I thought. I have a Samsung Watch 4 but there are many other models and most, other than the most sophisticated, aren't really too expensive. TA
