I am taking 25mg atenlol(beta blocker last thing at night to control stray afib ) but I have increased dose to have another 25mg when i get home to rid this dropping sensation

I would ask to have your settings checked. If that doesn't shed light on it, ask for a stress test while hooked up to the pm computer. They can adjust how slowly your heart slows down after exercise, and if you are using rate response they can adjust how quickly it goes up with exertion.

one of the things that I was made to understand was that with a pacemaker you should not be involved in contact sports. boxing even a bag or pads to me is contact sports, maybe you should ak your doctor to clarify that for you before you continue with your program.
good luck
