AF and Ejection fraction

[NLGA]

if you have AF does anyone know if it can lower your Ejection factor

I am waiting on Cardioverson and have a Ejection factor of 50 after my echo I wouldn’t have a clue if that’s normal for me but it is a little lower than I would like and thought could it be lower due to the AF

Thank you

I've been told that 50 - 55 is a good level (as it was mine) so don't worry.

Cheers . I just worry as I feel breathless walking up a few flights of stairs where a year ago it didn’t bother me . I have AF so maybe that’s doing it although when I research not there doesn’t seem to be loads of information on being breathless with it more fatigued .I kind of worry my Ejection factor has dropped but have no proof as I only had 1 echo in late June do it may always been 50.

Are you breathless at all with your ejection fraction of 50-55
