People on Health Unlocked AF page are not medically qualified but all will have AF or be supporting someone who has it. There are also experienced, trained volunteers but, essentially it is an information exchange and support group for patients. Having said that, the knowledge and support available is amazing and members help to allay fears and signpost to latest research etc. Many are UK based, but there are folk from USA, Australia & others.

Make sure you are in the AF section. Find the home button at the top and it will ask you to post a question.

Could be "frightening" dreams but if it has happened more than once then keep a check and written record of symptoms. Including taking and recording pulse rate during night and day. if steady may not be A/F but you should seek medical opinion if necessary or if you are you are overly concerned.
