anyone help or advise me in this possible condition ?

I have AF and after my recent consultation the doctor has sent me a letter saying my condition has the suggestion of PND

I have had an echo last year and he is booking me in for another

My EF is low normal

Yes that’s it

I will but it’s not for 3 months and I received the info on a letter today

I have AF

I wondered if others had it and results / meds / concerns etc

Yeah 3 months is along time to wait for some answers on this 💔. I get shortness of breath that lasts for bout 30 seconds when I lie down I did mention to my clinical nurse and she wasn't concerned x
