hello, I'm new here.

I was born with Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), it is 4 x defects of the heart, and had an operation to correct my heart, this was back in 1976.

I went to the Kruger National Park (where you can see the big 5) and had to drink malaria prevention medication. My heart went out of rhythm.

I then went through a period of anxiety/panic attacks, at the age of 23 and did not have much hope. I overcame the anxiety with the help of doctors, meds, lifestyle, prayer and a good attitude.

I write a blog: myafibheart.com

I've had 8 cardioversions and one ablation.

I am AFIB free for the past year since May.

I write because I want to understand and prevent AFIB, anxiety/panic attacks and know more about the heart.

I'm very grateful to live a full healthy life!
