... but we're reminding everyone to not stress!

This time of the year can often cause stress and anxiety which is known to lead to an increased heart rate and so it's important to remember to take a step back and breath slowly and deeply.

Why not have a look at our Mindfulness booklet for inspiration as to how to keep a cool head this festive season? api.heartrhythmalliance.org...

Hi

Yes.

I'm not.

I have to pace myself and my meds CONTROL the H/R Day and it always leads me to 47 H/R Night.

My AF was caused by Thyroid cancer and fingers crossed that the heart returns to normal one day.

I ask that folks have a thyroid scan or carotid arteries scan where the scanner checks out your thyroid.

Save yourself from Stroke with AF!
