I am in permanent AFib, so it is easy for me to catch my BP when in AFib. I have a history
of good (low) BP, and since the
onset of AFib and the ingestion of beta blockers (up to 200 mg of Metoprolol a day) my BP tends to be on the low side. When I first went to 200 mg of the BB my BP went too low, i.e., some dizziness.
I may have missed your points, but can say my experience is, AFib doesn't cause high BP.
