AFIB

My merlin recorded an afib event of over 2 hours one time, they are telling me I need two very costly medications. My question, I had an echo optimization one month prior to this event could the adjustment to the ICD create afib? 

I have had a ICD since 2011.

There is another site may answer your questions:  StopAfib.org

I have AFIB periodically, and may have to go on medicine.  I never know when I am in AFIB, but when I have a device check I receive a complete report showing the date, time, and how long I was in AFIB.  I also keep a daily calendar of events.  Every time I have AFIB it was caused by a stressful event.  So.... I am trying to calm down!  (I go to the gym & listen to soft music during the day).

Everyone is different.  Best of Luck!  Let us all know what meds you are taking and if they work.

So, my advice is to go about your daily routine and forget that you have a pacemaker implanted in your body.
