Afib /sweating

[myrnalynn52]

I have a question to ask, last night was sitting on couch watching tv and got up made some tea , I felt warm like heat turned up to high, I then broke out sweating ended up forehead soaked hair wet, nightgown damp had to go change lasted about 20 before I fell like I was cooling down ,I had no other symptoms , I checked heart rate to see if I bask back in AFib, pulse was normal, strong ,reg, blood pressure normal , I had not eaten for several hours as I have had the sweatingv the odd time when carbs were to high so wired, I wondered if anyone else has experienced this.

My other question is dice I was cardioverted I get the odd feeling like my heart has jumped in chest or it burped or fluttered and goes away right away , just not sure why it does that I mentioned to GP but she just said I expect that but never said more not sure whether that’s jus palpitations or ectopics Dow’s not last long just noticeable

Thank you and have a blessed and joyful day or a restful ite

Trouble is we AFers get far to aware of what our hearts are doing. Best ignore and get on with life.

Thanks Bob, you always wonder if your to be concerned or not lol only been at this since middle of sept and only converted since Jan 21. I am enjoying life and all but every so often you get a change and wonder if it should be a concern or not. I know it does not help when doctor says if persists or any change come in . I myself hate running to doctor have a lot better things to do than go to hosp and hate pills so this is all just a blip on my screen so I dom’t Ignore something I should have paid attention to. Thank you and your right about us Afibers, I think all a learning curve

Have a great day

Per your hot/sweating event. I had similar events of intense heat and sweating followed by the chills. They would build pretty suddenly, then hang on for a bit, then I would start to cool down and have the chills (probably because I was now kinda soaked in sweat). Turned out that I was having hot flashes. GP confirmed that I was entering menopause. It was not AF related at all. Not sure if that could be happening to you myrnalynn52.

Thank you but walready went through all that for quite a few years , but kinda same thing except I do not get chilled , kinda what it feels like though. Maybe Afib or cardioversion put me in a second menopause. I hated it the first time around lol

Thank you though I had not even thought of it. Have a great night or beautiful day depending where you are .
