Let's hope this stirs up your GP and various wheels swiftly get set in motion to sort things out for you. Yes, there are lights at the end of these tunnels. Some of them can be long and dark and others seem to go ever downward. Unpleasant though they may be at the time, it's easier when the next one comes along to believe in that light at the end.

Lets hope so CollieDog.....maybe things will start to improve and you will be able to relax a bit and so pleased you were able talk about your appointment.....best of luck, John

Sorry colliedog but you need to know that AF is a long journey and there are few short cuts. You know what you have to do.

Oh dear collie dog you are having an awful time. Pleased you are getting some support from your a and e visit and hopefully getting a monitor and quicker referral hopefully to a cardiac specialist.

Anxiety meds seem a good idea perhaps they will calm you in the interim until you get the af under control. It's awful being on your own to deal with it I do feel for you. Medics will sort things for you, be comforted.
