With that can come the unwelcomed gift called holiday heart syndrome which is mostly related to too much drinking. When you drink too much alcohol and go to irregular heart rhythm called a fib. It is when top part of the heart does not beat in conjunction with the bottom part of the heart. Reporter alcohol can short circuit electrical system, change electrolyte levels in the blood and increase release of stress hormones which can cause afib, most common symptom intense heart palpitations and being short of breath. If you are in afib you are probably going pretty fast and to be in that fast rhythm a long time can cause damage soy it is really important to be seen, by your Doctors Office or, your local Urgent Care Center or emergency room. Reporter doctors say it is important to recognize Atrial Fibrillation because not only can it cause your heart to beat out of rhythm but it can cause a clot to form which can lead to the stroke. For some people the condition is temporary but others might need to be chemically or electrically converted back to a normal heart rhythm.
