What does afib sometimes only occur during the night laying down?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A couple reasons: Early morning hrs have a surge of catacholamines this can trigger afib. Also sleep apnea can triiger afib. Sometimes its occuring all day but at night while lying down pts are more aware.
