I suggest that you ask for a referral to an EP since the majority of gps know only a little about AF and I suspect rarely are up to date and of course they are only likely to be seeing the odd few patients so don't have a sufficiently large knowledge base about symptoms / reactions / options whereas an EP is seeing quite a few people every week.
