Cardiac electro conversion

I had a cardiac electro conversion last week for atrial fibrillation. Since then I have worsened shortness of breath. Has anyone experienced this too and if so how long rid it take to recover from breathlessness?

Thank you

I’ve had several cardioversions for af but never felt particularly breathless afterwards. I have bronchiectasis. It might be the anaesthetic, but definitely worth consulting your doctor
