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!
