I have just come across what I consider to be the best description of AF I have found thus far on the web - with an animation too.

nhlbi.nih.gov/health/health...

I wish I had found this when I was first diagnosed, it would of answered a lot of my questions.

I have always been disorganised , heart just cactching up with rest of me.

For us olduns told it was like a telephone exchange with dozens of crossed lines.

When it comes to the body, if you are a researcher, you will never be out of a job - what an amazing machine where the medics still only understand the basics!
