Fatigue

Since an arrhythmia can lead to the body not getting enough blood, the result is often weakness and lack of energy (seemingly for no reason, even if you seem to be getting and adequate amount of sleep). This fatigue is often also experienced with pressure in the chest pressure, shortness of breath, dizziness, and perspiration.

The brain is not immune to the less than ideal flow of blood within the body. Luckily, arrhythmia is not life threatening in the majority of cases; however, the associated fatigue can really impact an individual’s quality of life.
