Sorry to learn that you are suffering with breathlessness and swollen ankles and hope your GP has prescribed something to help you. I have not found the hot weather has affected my AF at all. In fact I played golf 3days in succession without any ill effects - other than sun burnt shoulders!
Yes to swollen feet and ankles, and breathlessness. My doctor gave me a diuretic for swollen feet but I had to stop taking it after a few days because it upset my tum. The only thing that seems to help a bit is putting your feet up (literally) in the evening. If you hear of anything else I would be glad to know.
Best wishes, Carrie
