I use breath also when my HR goes 'funny' but can't describe it well. All i know is that so far it gets the HR feeling back to normal.

Is this the mechanism at play when one does valsalva or modified valsalva?

Not sure if this will make sense, but how can this relate to Sleep apnea? That is also a non breathing situation but one that contributes to AFIB. I am not disagreeing with your method just wondering how they may relate.

I'm sure. Since I thankfully have infrequent episodes (it will be back to three in two years on Monday), I haven't made the investment in trying to track CO2, though that would be interesting, just in the breathing experiments without afib. However, I've played with breathing enough, I'm very familiar with the "out of air" signal that increasing CO2 brings (my own "capnometer"). As mentioned above, I've tried not to push this too hard in training, after my experience with the after training higher afib risk as CO2 goes back to my normal level, in 2018.Quote

George : So having a live recordable CO2 reading would even clarify things more?

I just remembered, there is a lag in the readings back to the CO2 machine of about 10 seconds or so, so a Blood-Gas test right after conversion would also be helpful, but I think this require being in the Hospital.

We did not hold after the last out breath. The breath hold on the last big inhale is only a few seconds, that is until the pop sound in the chest happens.
