My diet continues to be keto. I eat in a 2 hour window daily. For the last 4 years, it is more "ovo-pegan," hence my fat sources are mostly monos - olive, macadamia and avocado oil. My animal protein is shell fish, white fish & eggs. On the veggie side, no grains, legumes, nightshades or seeded veggies and almost no fruit except avocados..

Wow, George… you’ve got your diet down to a science, and you have strong discipline to be able to do extended fasts like that. I’ve at best done only single day fasts, but maybe you’ll inspire me to take if further. BTW, do you recommend any good books on ketogenic diets??

Yeah, it’s during the induction phase of ketosis where I’ve run into electrolyte imbalances (and thus afib). I’ve been off low-carb / high-protein for year or so, but I need to start again.
You mentioned getting prone during an afib episode; do you literally mean lying prone

Doubtful that very many people can eat the way you do, but what do you mean that you eat in a 2 hour window daily, do you eat every 2 hours? I believe that grains, legumes which the Med. diet says is good for you is what I follow I ate a lot of tomatoes in Aug., sept. and Oct., I had one AF episode in Aug. I hope people don't follow your diet, I think it is bad, but what do I know.

Just a small point, George. Since lying prone means lying on your front do you, in fact, mean lying supine. lying on your back?

It seems atrial flutter with 1:1 conduction is a pretty rare problem. It seems to occur during exercise, particularly if a person in a arrhythmia reverts to NSR during exercise. One interesting thing was that in a retrospective study, in the patients who experienced atrial flutter with 1:1 conduction, they were all on anti-arrhythmia drugs, but half of them were also on a AV nodal conduction-suppressing drug which should have prevented the flutter - which makes me wonder how effective these drugs are at preventing the problem. Sadly, information seems to be sparse on this though.

That was the only option? Glad it worked.

I think the sotolol had more of an effect and now the atenolol with flec definitely has an effect. Too much so i think?
Liz did give me a heads up on atenolol. I've cut back from 50mg 2x/day and 100mg of flec 2x/day (i've converted in the meantime) to 25mg atenolol and 50mg of flec 2x/day.
My concern and question (feedback please) is that my HR is in the low 40s in the morning and yesterday after slow exercising for 50 min and working up only light perspiration my HR only got to 55.
After having read the flutter/flec relationship i wonder if cutting the atenolol to 25mg 1x/day with the flec is a good/safe idea? In other words, how much beta blocker is commonly recommended when taking flec?
