Description

Dr. Keith Roach is a physician at Weill Cornell Medical College and New York Presbyterian Hospital. He writes an educational column on infectious diseases, public health and sports medicine.

DEAR DR. ROACH: I’m a generally healthy 60-year-old man. Last week, I had some abdominal cramping, and while I was on the toilet, I noted the abrupt onset of a strange feeling in my chest as well as abnormal, irregular and fast heartbeats. My watch has an electrocardiogram (EKG) function, and it immediately said I was in atrial fibrillation at a rate of 100-130 bpm.
