Lucy Soto, American Heart Association News, 04/07/2019
From the article in the American Heart Association (Heart.org) site:
"A study in November showed opioid use may increase the risk of atrial fibrillation, or AFib, a type of irregular heart rhythm that can lead to a stroke. The study included medical records of more than 857,000 young and middle-age military veterans and showed opioid use increases the likelihood of AFib by 34 percent."
