In your article you state under causes and risk factors that it has been reported that a coronary artery disease can result to tachy brady syndrome and that certain medications could cause tachy brady syndrome. These medications are known to be beta-blockers, digoxin and anti-arrhythmic drugs.
In 2011 I was diagnosed with AFib and also CAD[ which resulted in a CABG(triple bypass)]. 2 of the medications I was put on[and still on them] are Metoprolol Tartrate and Diltiazem Hcl Er Cd. In 2013 I had a 2 lead pacemaker implant because a Holter monitor showed AFib and Brady with many pauses one of which was 3.1sec. Can you tell me where I can locate written medical articles supporting possible nexus to CAD and the medications I am on. My contention is that my paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and the bradycardia are at least a 50% result of CAD,s/p CABG. Would appreciate your help very much in this matter. Thank you.
