[higgy52]

Been off the site for couple of years as I'm not doing to bad after 3 ablation for AF, 6 .5 and 4 years ago, In normal rhythm, but any alcohol can give me tachycardia,

But when in bed I can feel my head moving every time my Heart beats, strange,

I've got enlarged left aitreum,

But still working as a gardener

Hi Higgy good to hear from you again. Could it be pulsatile tinnitus when yu are hearing yur heart beating n one or other ear. Sadly not uncommon for us AFers.

Bob could be right, I get it sometimes even when I’m in sinus rhythm, makes it hard to sleep on my side then suddenly it disappears an hour later

[higgy52 in reply to OzJames]

Yes it's strange,Don't need to check pulse, can hear beats on pillow rustling

[OzJames in reply to higgy52]

Exactly… mine can last a few minutes or go on for an hour or more. Could be stress related but I can go a month with nothing then I get a spell of every night for a week. Cannot remember ever getting it during the day

Good to read. Can I ask, what were your symptoms like before the ablations?

Hi Steve Short of breath at times, fast Heart rate,

Feel better now, but it took 3 cardiovetions, 3 Ablations,

Good luck 👍

Thanks. My own AF is just a part of things since the many ectopics I get much more often than AF feel pretty similar, except my heart only races with AF, thankfully. What a life it can be at times.
