I feel my prox. AF has changed over the last 6 months. It now last most of the day being in and out of AF and the periods when I’m not in it I have a resting heart rate of around 100. Just as I go back into Sinus rhythm I feel really ill as though I’m going to black out and start to lose my focus for a few seconds. When I do an ECG (via Apple Watch) straight after this feeling, I’m back in normal sinus rhythm again.
has anybody else had this experience and is it normal or something to be worried about?
I find this very scary.
