Sheffield AF Group Meeting

[AFCyclist]

I have just attended my first meeting and can recommend it as a useful forum to discuss issues with other AF patients. It is run by an Arythmia Nurse and there is the opportunity to get direct medical advice. Whilst a lot of us get great help from this AFA on-line forum it is sometimes useful to talk to a group of others or medical staff face to face. The next meeting is 10am Monday 6th June 2014 in the Medical Education Centre, Northern General Hospital, Sheffield, UK.

Sounds good, is there one in the midlands anywhere?

[Finvola]

Sounds good to me too - any in Northern Ireland?

Hi, I think it is something that the Sheffield Cardiology Dept started themselves. I picked it up from the AF Assoc website. I am not aware of any others elsewhere but I will ask at the next meeting. The thing that is on in Birmingham is the AF Assoc Patients Day on Sunday 5th Oct at the ICC in Birmingham. I am told that the last one was very good. I am planning to go. If you sign up now it is £20. Details on AFA website.
