Yes - as during atrial fibrillation the heart is not pumping what it should, this results in a drop in o2 being delivered to the brain that can cause a feeling of being extremely tired. Some people, remarkably, live with this and adjust to it.

Can IBS cause atrial fibrillation?

I believe IBS can cause afib. Many times I get cramping and have exessive bowel movements (like 8-10 a day) and I take an Imodium, I go into afib later in the evening. I thought it was from the Imodium, but I think it is because my potassium goes under 4.0 from the excessive bowel movements. When I get to ER, my potassium is always like 3.8 and if you have afib, they like your potassium to be over 4.0.
