Yes - as during atrial fibrillation the heart is not pumping what it should, this results in a drop in o2 being delivered to the brain that can cause a feeling of being extremely tired. Some people, remarkably, live with this and adjust to it.
Yes it does cause tiredness and fatigue.
Yes, high altitude can trigger atrial fibrillation (AFib) in individuals who may be predisposed to it. The lower oxygen levels at high altitudes can place additional stress on the heart, potentially leading to irregular heartbeats like AFib. It is essential for individuals with a history of AFib to be cautious when traveling to high altitudes and consult with their healthcare provider before doing so.
Flutter and atrial fibrillation (AFib) are both types of abnormal heart rhythms, but they differ in their patterns. Atrial flutter is a regular and organized rhythm, while AFib is irregular and chaotic. Both conditions can cause symptoms like palpitations and fatigue, but AFib is generally considered more serious and may require more aggressive treatment.
I believe IBS can cause afib. Many times I get cramping and have exessive bowel movements (like 8-10 a day) and I take an Imodium, I go into afib later in the evening. I thought it was from the Imodium, but I think it is because my potassium goes under 4.0 from the excessive bowel movements. When I get to ER, my potassium is always like 3.8 and if you have afib, they like your potassium to be over 4.0.
Lupus anticoagulant does not, in itself cause tiredness but having lupus does. Lupus can cause anemia which in turn causes fatigue. Lupus can cause the body to make inflammatory cytokines which cause a feeling of flu like fatigue.
An afib is another name for an atrial fibrillation, a cardiac arrythmia involving the two upper chambers of the heart.

PAC (Premature Atrial Contraction) and AFib (Atrial Fibrillation) are both heart rhythm disorders, but they have key differences. PAC is an early heartbeat originating in the atria, while AFib is a rapid and irregular heartbeat. PAC usually doesn't cause serious issues, but AFib can lead to blood clots, stroke, and heart failure. Both conditions can impact a person's heart health by affecting the heart's ability to pump blood effectively.
