Hi Guys

I check my BP and pulse two weeks ago I was in AFIB, ( Aflutter diagnosed) contacted GP as meds had been changed from beta blocker to Calcium blocker, change back to Nebivolol , now I have a PR of 130 but it goes back to normal if im active then back to 130vvwhen I rest, I'm disabled so exercise is difficult but I do what I can when I can. any suggestions I'm actually seeing my GP on Monday so questions to ask would be useful ?? thanks

In all my years on this forum I've not heard of anything like this before. I'll be interested to hear what your GP has to say. How do you feel when your heart rate is 130? As you're mentioning that particular rate I would say it sounds like atrial flutter, but so strange re it going down when you move around.

Sorry can't be of much help, but wish you well and will wait to hear the outcome. If you're feeling ill I would go to A&E.
