Hello!
Welcome on 'Ask a Doctor'!
Regarding your concern, I would explain that his symptoms could be related to atrial fibrillation.
I would like to directly review his cardiac ultrasound and ECG report in order to give a more professional opinion.
Hope to have been helpful!
Wishing good health,
Dr. Iliri
