AFib: AFib can be caused by trauma but so can other things. If you are noticing a real change in status you should see your doctor and be evaluated.

A member asked:
I'm 28 and don't smoke. Can I still have an AFib or Angina if my EKG, chest X-ray, blood, and stress test came back normal? One EKG showed abnormal heart rhythm but 4 others ( taken within 5 month span) showed normal heart rhythm. I'm really scared.
