AFib and Low Blood Pressure

by Jackie__0__0, Jan 01, 1995 12:00AM

Posted By Jackie on May 18, 1999 at 10:17:53
I am a 62 year old female who has been diagnosed as having lone Afib. I notice that my episodes of Afib come on when my blood pressure is low. When I'm in Afib my blood pressure goes very low (86/58). I do not come out of Afib until my blood pressure goes up. What is the relationship between Afib and low blood pressure?
