Hi i am 45 yrs old and live in the UK, I was born with heart problems i have had AF on and off for as long as i can remember. I had a mitral valve prolapse and had heart surgery in 2003 to repair it which is still working well.

In 2013 i had a heart attack and in 2015 i had a stroke, for the last 2 yrs i have been in AF. I think i have many angels watching over me either that or i have 9 life's like a cat, but i prefer the angel idea. lol.

Living with AF is not something i find easy but we just had to keep taking the pills and plod on.
