I suggest you get to a cardiologist ASAP. And an Electrophysiology specialist. It could be Afib. I had Afib that started the week I got the first Pfizer shot and continued daily until I had an Ablation 13 months ago. I discovered this from my FitBit watch but had very few symptoms. My heart also skipped a beat which precluded some options. Quit smoking will help this and your general health but don’t wait. Good luck!
