Do you regularly experience these symptoms?

- Palpitations which may be rapid

- Tiredness

- Shortness of breath

- Dizziness

- Chest pains

While this list is not exhaustive, it highlights common signs and symptoms often experienced by people with Atrial Fibrillation (AF).

An irregular pulse is another key indicator of AF. Our Know Your Pulse campaign emphasises, ‘Know Your Pulse to Know Your Heart Rhythm – it could save your life’. Learn how to check your pulse by watching the videos on our website: loom.ly/qoAsmk4.

For more information on AF, including symptoms and causes, explore our resources here: loom.ly/w3NXOw0.
