Covid and Afib

The best way to get an answer is of course to contact my gp but I can’t get through.

I posted last week re Covid. I’m now nearing the end of Covid - line getting fainter. However AFib has kicked in. Been going since Saturday. Not too high or uncomfortable. A recent echo was normal. But I’m wondering if I might need meds adjusted. Anyone else find this?

Any luck with the GP? What meds are you on?

Gp has written to cardiologist but I went to a and e and was told I wasn’t inAF but it was sinus tachycardia which can happen with Covid. I’ve reconnected my Kardia. Most readings are tachycardia with a couple of AF readings. I had a private echo done a few weeks ago which was fine. Going for my NHS one in couple of weeks so will see what that brings. Thanks.
