Pfizer Booster

Hi all. As I have posted before I had a cardioversion then on amidorone for 7 months then I came off them.I know some members have had bad experience with amidorone but it worked for me.

I only had one week to go and I would of been in NSR for one year and I felt good. I know a lot has been posted about the Pfozer or any other covid jab and the norm seems it does not effect afib.

My 1st 2 jabs I had no side effects at all exceopt for sore arm. Last Thurday (13th) midday I went for my booster which was pfizer. No side effect at all rest of day or even Friday except for the sore arm.

Around 5am sat morning I woke up and I could feel my heart beating in my chest which even when I was in regular afib I could not feel. Not ony could I feel it beating but it felt uneven😩. When I got out of bed I felt like I had flu symtoms and out of breath with any exertion. I checked my bpm on oximeter and sure enough it sure looked like I was back in afib.

By sat night Breathing was ok and flu symptons had gone but not uneven bpm. Now Sunday and it still uneven but seems to be getting more of a normal rythem. Only 3 days since booster so hopefully it will contine to improve. was it the booster that started my afib off, not sure but sure seems coincidental. If no better in a week or 2 I think a phone call to doctor or direct to cardio dept.

I had my booster 5 days ago and just had a 10 minute period of AF, which is the first time since March last year ( and that was when I had my first COVID jab ) I was ok after the other boosters but just like first one I have had chills/aches etc this time around. I am sure that just like last time I will be all good again in day or so.

Any general body upset can be a trigger for AF and the idea of a vaccination / booster is to activate your immune system as if you had a virus infection - so it’s not surprising that it could result in an attack. The main thing is to treat it promptly if it has not stopped by itself. You need an ECG to be sure. It’s very helpful to have a device for doing this yourself, such as a Kardia Mobile or smart watch.

hi there is plenty of evidence out there stating the mrna injection can cause issues with the heart , it depends who you listen to and what you believe, someone with integrity is a good place to start, hope you are well soon.

All C-vaccines are associated with heart inflammation. The information is out there if you avoid the lying mainstream media. Good luck!

Hope you are feeling better now? I have had no problems with any of my 5 jabs but know a few people who have. My sister said the first few days after her jab were worse than Covid - which she had had just over a month before her 1st jab.

Not what you're looking for?
