AFIB from Pneumonia Vaccine?

According to Pfizer's FDA-registered clinical trial data (for Prevnar) there were no observed adverse cardiac events: https://www.pfizermedicalinformation.com/en-us/node/774076/pi_section/field_spl_adverse_reactions.

Pneumonia onset has, however, clear & predictable risks for adverse cardiac events: A recent (2022) peer-reviewed study highlighted the risk of atrial fibrillation in patients with pneumonia: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34995914/

Thank you for this reply. I'm actually looking information other than from the provider of the pneumonia drug. Your input on cardiac event risks from pneumonia is very helpful however. Thank you once again.

I had both shots about 3 to 4 months ago. I feel fine and never had any adverse reactions. Hope this helps.

Thank you for your input. May I ask your age? I am almost 79.

Hi again, I just noticed this second question and I have also had the PC13 type of Pneumonia vaccine in 2017 and no problems with AFIB. Hope that helps. I can see that reoccurrence of AFIB is high on your mind and I can relate. I didn't have AFIB but i had rhythm problems of the lower part of the Heart known a ventricular tachycardia which I was very concerned about as i had a pacemaker with a difibulator so I can understand the concern over anything to make it come back. But at least with the Pneumonia shot I had that prior to my heart transplant, and it was not a factor in the need for a transplant.
Sounds like the ablation was very successful to cure the AFIB? I also had a few ablations and some were successful but not all of them. I found that the place in my heart that had the most problems was hard to get to, So congratulations on the success of those procedures. If you feel confutable sharing I would love to hear more on AFIB in general as it seems to be a condition very common these days.

Thanks for your kind input. Yes, no more AFIB wanted and mine has been gone since my mitral valve, LAAC, and ablation procedures, 10 months ago. Fortunately my heart rate and blood pressure are very good. I take only 1 baby aspirin and 12.5 mg of metoprolol a day. I have read that moderate, not excessive exercise, is a good regimen for staying out of AFIB. I am careful about excessive radiation including UV rays, and excessive sugar, salt, and calories in general. I take a magnesium supplement which I have read helps one to stay out of AFIB. My great cardiac surgeon, Doctor Boulton of WakeMed in Raleigh, told me that magnesium is the only supplement he supports. Hope this helps. My very best to you.

Good afternoon. I have been in and out of AFIB for over a year, have a sleep study scheduled in April and an ablation procedure scheduled for July. I am interested in the type(if any) of magnesium recommended by your doctor. I was taking magnesium citrate and have switched to magnesium taurate which had a lot of positive anecdotal reviews about managing AFIB. Any info would be appreciated.

Good day. I had my ablation 10 months ago and have stayed out of AFIB ever since. I started magnesium glycinate, 1 capsule, 29% dv, right after the ablation. The brand I use is Pure. Overall I take a holistic approach. I eat a moderate amount of nuts and seeds to help get the balance of my potassium. I exercise moderately, not trying to break any records as I think that would not be helpful. I also have a low fat, low salt, low sugar diet. I avoid chemicals, especially anything with chlorine included. I minimize any exposure to ultraviolet rays and radiation in general. Finally, on daily basis I visualize my rna, dna, telemarse, and telomeres being in good order. I also visualize the same for my loved ones and friends. That's part of my meditation process. I hope this helps you.

saganjames,
Thank you so much for the information. Hopefully my ablation procedure will be as effective. Do you know which type of ablation was performed? My cardiologist uses the cryo type. Have been on a low sugar diet for years and in the last year added low salt to the list at the Dr.'s recommendation. With dozens of skin cancers removed over the years, understand and agree about UV rays. No real medical issues(except skin cancers) until I turned 73, than Afib, high BP, pre diabetes and CLL in a 6 months time frame. Exercised and careful about food(especially sugar) most of my life but feel fortunate to have gotten this far. Been doing more consistent meditating during this time also. Sounds like you have a winning combination and wishing you continued good health. Appreciate the response and will check out that magnesium.

Good day to you. I will try to help you the best I can. I had a frequency ablation provided to me by the wonderful cardiac surgeon, Dr. Boulton at WakeMed in Raleigh. He also repaired my mitral valve and did a LAAC. For your information after that, in consultation with my cardiologist, I wore a cardiac monitor for 30 days and as a result I was able to get off of my blood thinner, Eliquis. I currently only take two medications. One is a baby aspirin and the other is a 12.5 mg beta blocker, metoprolol. I take both of those only once a day. For your information I am almost 79 years old so there will be lots of good days ahead for you.
