Hello everybody, I’m new to this group but not to this website…. It’s so hard to know what to say to people these days everyone starts with how are you and It’s an instant downer! How do you cope with that? I never quite sure what to say. Usually it’s something like ‘I’m fine but don’t look too

I have paroxysmal afib, usually well controlled. I had a Covid booster first week of October and within 3 days was in pain in most of my joints but mainly a shoulder, hands and one foot.

Following on from Flamingheart's earlier post, I'm interested (for my other half, not myself) in hearing others experiences after being diagnosed.
