A-fib wipes me out. My brother also gets wiped out when in A=fib. I can feel it the moment it starts. And I can feel it when it stops.

I experience the same awareness of the onset of afib and then when it stops. Do you think it might be a blessing in disguise to be aware and able to keep tabs on it in the event a trip to the ER might be necessary?

My best friend was hosting a dinner party and was totally unaware that she had Afib until she woke up in hospital after having a stroke.
