You suggested previously that you have been diagnosed with Atrial Fibrillation (AF) - which could give you those symptoms. There are medical procedures that can help to treat AF, the most common of which are cardioversion and ablation. Neither of which are really surgery. Cardioversion is a quick and simple reset of your heart rhythm that may last from minutes to years but helps your medical team assess how likely an ablation is to be successful. An ablation is a complicated procedure which can make a big difference.

You'll get more information on the AF Association forum on this site and their website at heartrhythmalliance.org/afa....

You'll get better answers if you ask better questions. What concerns you most?
