Sneezing a trigger :-)

7 Replies

A bit light-hearted ...... I haven't had real AF symptoms for a couple of years now. But I did a big sneeze this morning (hope I haven't got a cold coming) and pronounced AF kicked straight off on the flick of a switch. It only went on for about a minute then faded away. But it was enough to remind me of what it was like.

Not had that before and not worried about it of course, just surprised and amused. I know that watching a bad film can set me off, just got to make sure I don't watch a bad film when I have a cold :-)

I know what you mean, as had that awful coughing virus recently and found that prolonged bouts of coughing fits defintely upset things a bit!

Is AF atriol Fibrillation? I get that at certain times. Is yours rapid fibrillation or a stopping and jumping about type?

in reply to daphne_retired

What I get it a fairly rapid, irregular tapping and jumping about. A bit like a muscle twitch.
