I am in permanent a-fib. I am trying to find help for the breathlessness it causes. I have had 3 cardioversions - they didn't work - one lasted 2 days. I am on metropolol, losartan, lipitor, xarelto, lasix, klor con and tikosyn. I am too old for an ablation procedure - 85-year-old female. Any suggestions

Is anyone under 40 using Nippy night time non invasive ventilation with oxygen and constant oxygen during the day
my daughter is trying to cope with severe lung damage caused by Sarcoidosis and day to day living on oxygen and night time ventilation - I think it would be helpful if she could communicate with someone nearer her age who is experiencing similar health problems.

Feeling better! YAY!
Over a year and a half ago I went to my GP because I was feeling very tired, low and had painful joints. I had also put on a lot of weight and was severely constipated. She referred me to an endo because although my TSH was low indicating overactive thyroid, my T3 was low. The endo prescribed T3
