Message: <blockquote data-quote="MihiCherub" data-source="post: 30400436" data-attributes="member: 238676">atrial fibrillation (AFib) can be a silent killer.  Atrial fibrillation is a heart condition that causes an irregular and often rapid heartbeat. AFib can sometimes cause symptoms such as heart palpitations, shortness of breath, fatigue, chest pain, lightheadedness, or dizziness. However, many people with AFib don't experience any symptoms at all, especially in the early stages of the condition. This is known as silent AFib.Silent AFib is a concern because it can increase your risk of stroke without you even knowing it. When your heart is in atrial fibrillation, it doesn't pump blood as efficiently as it should. This can cause blood clots to form in the heart. If a clot breaks loose, it can travel to the brain and cause a stroke</blockquote>
