For those who have been here a while - help

I am convinced that my main trigger is my low pulse and/or low blood pressure. When I am inactive for a long time, I first get missed beats and then convert into afib.

I know you guys have discussed this before but I simply can't find it using the search engine. I know it's there - can anyone help out approximatedly when it was discussed so I can read the posts?

Specifically, I need to address;

1 - Are these two related (low bp and low pulse rate)?
2 - How does one increase their pulse or bp? One can't be exercising all day.
3 - VERY IMPORTANT - what can I do to alleviate this situation when I'm asleep when both the bp and pulse goes down?

I can't believe I'm the only one facing this problem, barring some answers in those previous posts that I can't find - any suggestions to my dilemma? I'm going nuts looking for something proactive to do. Again, you guys are great for sharing knowledge.

Shawn,
I'm new to this board, but I personally experience low bp as a RESULT of the AFIB (either prior or after).... during AFB and the couple of days there after... 90/40. I'll be curious to see some of the replies.
Thanks,
Dawn
