What Can Cause Shortness Of Breath And Fatigue While Suffering From Atrial Fibrillation?

I 'am 65 years old and just had my first bout with afib. I don't know what it is but I feel worse now then I ever did. Very short of breath and not able to sleep. I think it is some of the meds they have me on. Very tired and getting more stressed by the day.

Hi,

Have you been seen by a cardio?
If not do so. AF is not a comfortable thing.
Show me your prescription drugs.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
