Does anyone get shaky hands I am getting this lately and wondered if this is to do with A.Fib?

Yes I do. Only had it since taking flecainide. EP says it is a side effect of the drug. I also get a dithering feeling around my heart from time to time. I am woolly headed and forgetful, feels as though I am wading through treacle, not like me at all. I have always been sharp and held down high level job roles.

Glad it isn't just me I am also forgetful.

I refuse to call it forgetful, I have intellectual interludes, not sure what to call my shaky hands though....I'll have to work on that one!!

I have a very shaky right hand but only in one position - when I am trying to hit the arrows with my cursor and it definitely started when I commenced the AF meds. A minor inconvenience to the benefit I get from being treated for AF.

Just a nuisance when I hit delete in the middle of something I am reading.

I also have shaky hands and for a period the Doctors thought it was Parkinsons but tests proved negative and now I have a tremor of unknown origin! I am sure it started when my AF became more apparrent so I am waiting for the research that proves this. A nuisance and upsetting at times but things could be so much worse.
