Propofol

Propofol

I posted this on the doctor forum, but thought I'd post here to to see if anyone else will comment:

I need to have a minor surgical procedure that will last ten minutes or less and the doctors want to use propofol as the anesthetic.  I read about the side effects and am very concerned.  Since giving birth to my third child 18 months ago, I have been plagued by PACs and PVCs.  I even had a couple brief episodes of afib immediately after the birth.  Is this a safe to use in someone with these  troubles?  My cardiologist has stated that my extra beats.  Thanks for any information you can provide. My other choices are Fentanyl/Versed.
