Suggest Treatment For Atrial Fibrillation And High BP

When should I go to the ER for afib? I have it periodically and am on Diltiazem 360 mg and hydrochlorothiazide for high blood,pressure. I take one 325 mg aspirin daily. I took one propranolol when I noticed I was in afib. I felt my heart beating irregularly. My blood pressure is varying quite a bit. My heart rate was 144 and then was 77. Right before I started typing it was 125.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, without the EKG tracing it is not possible to know arrhythmia because it has got no typical clinical symptoms it could be silent too, so period medical check up is necessary and physician will advise you for follow up and according to that you need to visit the doctor, in case of bad dyspnea, breathlessness, dizziness, of course you can go to ER, hope this information may helps you, take care and have a nice day.
