Covid vax and AFIB

just as an FYI, I had a Covid vaccination (Pfizer) a couple of days ago and I developed AFIB within a few hours. It did resolve itself overnight after I took extra metoprolol.

I need to get mine but have so many questions. Which vaccine did you get? The new one? Are you on treatment? Have you ever had heart issues prior to the shot?

I had the newer Pfizer. I'm on the BOVen clinical trial (Zanubrutinib, Obinutuzumab and Venetoclax) and have been post med phase for about 3 years now. Yes, I've had AFIB before but this is the first time it may have been triggered by a Covid vax.
