AF fears

[MrsT1967]

I have had AF for almost 5 years, been on flecanide and now verapamil , have been in AF all day so far, been in and out of a&e several times the last few weeks , am now on maximum dose of verapamil and waiting for them to try ablation , 3-4 months waiting list , I am terrified now a I have walked from an armchair to another room and am literally exhausted , have had swollen feet too , they have said that the ablation may not work as my left atrium is now severely dilated , I am so scared but when I go in they do the normal bloods , triponin level always normal so no MI , the AF can take hours to settle down and at the moment it is there 75% of the time, I actually feel like a ticking time bomb

Sorry- not with you at all-- are you in the right group?

I've had SVTs, another type of tachycardia. Going to a plant-based diet has helped and improved overall health. Check nutrition facts.org

Also, Dr. John Mandrola is a top cardiologist with suggestions about AF. Read his current and older blogs at drJohnM.org
