Does Melatonin Trigger Atrial Fibrillation?

I was diagnosed with Afib a few years ago. Together with taking atenolol and asprin, the Afib has been behaving pretty well. For about 4 days now my Afib has been acting up but very mildly. Just so happens that about 4 days ago I started taking Tart Cherry juice due to it s health benefits including better sleep because it contains natural melatonin. Can the melatonin be triggering the Afib? Thank You.
