Hey, I woke up at 3:30am yesterday and had Afib.   At 11:00am I had my espresso which I have never done before with Afib and in 10 minutes it was completely gone.  Who knows???  What the heck, my wife already wanted to kill me because I went out an mowed the yard before that.  I have proximal afib so this is only the 2nd incident this year.  My wife drinks coffee before bed too.   It take me 3-4 hours to get it out of my system to sleep.  So nothing after 3pm for me.  Let me clarify, a single espresso is 1oz.....mine is 4oz, so I guess that is a quadruple?


Research suggests that caffeine isn’t a cause of abnormal heart rhythms or atrial fibrillation, and drinking four to five cups of tea or coffee a day shouldn’t increase your risk of developing coronary heart disease either.
