That's perfectly fine. There's absolutely no reason to limit exercise because you have afib so keep it up. :-)

Are you sure about that? Wouldn't vigorous exercise cause the heart to "work more", coupled with a troubled heart in afib wouldn't that make things worse?

Are you really so strongly addicted to the exercise, that you do not care about how your heart performs its task?

Maybe all of you, with permanent AF and still exercising, should keep in mind that the very next level of atrial arrhythmias, starting from AF, is SCA (sudden cardiac arrest).

Fascinating, did he take any medications while in afib?

Fourteen months of persistent AF and coming out of it, that is inspiring. During that AF time did he take any blood thinners and George when you were in the 2 month period did you take any blood thinners?

I'm sorry but this is entirely incorrect. Atrial arrhythmias are not responsible for SCA, or even connected to SCA in any way.

"I have hesitated to post my last comment, for fear of scaring members, but as this subject has come up, I'm going to, then I'll duck! I was watching a documentary programe 'Inside the Ambulance' when the crew were called to a man in a state of semi-collapse. It turned out he had recently had an episode of AF and was still feeling ill though now in NSR. One of the crew explained to camera later that this was because a long episode of AF was like running several marathons back to back without training so therefore the heart would still be tired for some time afterwards. She added that AF was dangerous because a too high HR for too long would cause cardiac arrest, so they took AF very seriously."
I am not of scared ones and I would not like to scare others, but knowing the truth may be life saving. Wishing to all of you best of health,

Sorry, but when my HR is at 190-200 bpm and chaotic, stopping and starting...my greatest feat is sudden cardiac arrest.
The ENGAGE AF-TIMI 48 trial showed a link between AF and sudden cardiac death.
Whilst I don’t linger over or become morbidly obsessed about reports (there are so many) it pays to be cautious and give your heart the care it deserves.
After all it is working hard to keep you alive and deserves all the TLC you can give it.
I wouldn’t be flying down the freeway at 200 miles an hour in a 70 year old car with a faulty engine, so why would I do it to my heart?
