I might change that to the forum soon, as I only very recently discovered it. Thanks for being here xx

May be different in the U.S. But calling our doctor or other health care professional would be the natural first thing to do when in an acute situation. To research chronic issues, perhaps this forum or other internet sites would be more natural.

I would go to hospital or call an ambulance if I had an acute problem but otherwise if I am worried and need a bit of advice or to check how I feel with someone else I often check in on the patient forum site everyone has a wealth of knowledge and can put you at ease sometimes and also point you towards your doctor when there are concerns how I feel so all good....

Hi there

It's such a shame because I have only very recently discovered this wonderful forum and at the moment I don't have AF. How I wished I'd known it about during the past 2 years when I had so many worries etc. because what this site does is make you feel that you are not alone and that what you are feeling is normal! Great site,thanks everyone

I agree that if you are in an acute situation, seeking medical help would be the first step. However, this Forum or other internet sources would be my first choice for general information or for finding people with experience of particular symptoms or treatments.

Could be of value even though I have chronic AF and told that intervention would not be of value. bap
