Recently someone posted and asked if a vaccine can trigger an arrhythmia? The reply was no.

[pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Thank you for posting.

I had posted my successful NSR after getting a 43% pvc burden by taking Tenormin imported from Germany.. It worked 6 weeks until I asked for a pneumonia vaccine. My PVCs are so much worst afterwards that I can’t breathe. My GP saw my legs and ankles swollen, low oxygen saturation and he sent me to the ER because he suspected a heart failure. He called up my EP at the hospital and it was agreed upon that I go to the ER and ve met by a cardiologist. No cardiologist arrived.. My lungs are full of fluid.

In 2022 I was in afib/flutter remission while taking Sotalol for 6 months along with cardizem. A Covid vaccine let me down the road of continuous flutter until 12-22 nothing stopped my 190 flutter, even ECVs, so I needed an av node ablation.

I would speculate some people are sensitive to vaccines.

It’s a shane I got my pneumonia booster.

I had a very strong association of C 19 vaxes and a large increase in afib episodes. In my case, the longer in time I went from a vax, the impact reduced. A friend with connections at a large EP center said the center reports this association as well, for some patients. I've sworn off those vaxes & take few others.

Hi Susan

Thanks for sharing that study—interesting results!

I’m curious if any doctors or here can comment on the credibility of the study design?

Interesting article, Susan, thanks. Like George the covid vax gave me fib and high heart rate every time. Even though I was already in fib 24/7 after covid, as I progressed to less and less fib, it was very noticeable with the last 2 boosters. Heart rate was so high I ended up in ER.

I am NOT anti-vax at all. I grew up in a military family that traveled overseas and have had probably every vaccination you can get- never a major problem at all. I still get any needed vaccinations (flu, pneumonia etc) with no problem.

Ditto on both points, though in reply to point 1, I had an ablation 2 months after the vax, so I don’t know if the Afib would have reduced in time.

I had a very bad experience with C19 Vax.

Previously, with my protocol I was getting AF about 3 times a year.
After the first Vax my AF occurred every 2nd or 3rd day. A week later I get covid toes then a few days later hives.
Which took 2 months to clear up.
After the second Vax more AF, which then stopped for a couple of months.
Then came the boster Vax...... All hell broke loose.
Lots of AF, PAC's. One every 3rd beat.

I have since had a successful ablation.
I feel wonderful and grateful.

This study might explain some of the cases of AF?

I don't have a medical background but I think we need to remember that covid19 itself can lead to heart issues.

I guess the question is, are we better off taking our chances with the virus or the vaccine?

Where I live everyone has degrees of coughing. They ignore it and the pharmacy doesn’t even sell Covid tests and they don’t test at the clinics.

I don’t know how it is in the states if Covid is taken seriously or ignored as “just the flu”.

You guys have your own problems. I heard there are limits on how many eggs one can buy from the bird flu.
