Thank you for posting the video, Scott. Good tips. Good reminder to really pay attention to any unusual symptoms. I keep a log of any new or noteworthy symptoms so I can reference back to them. Sometimes the details of what you were actually feeling weeks or months ago fades away over time. I also log side effects to meds. It’s not daily.

@scottrl Whoa! great food for thought. I too have had a sharp headache awake me from sleep but confined to left temple/eye area. Went away on its own but has happened more than once. I had a pacemaker placed for AFib in '21. I also have pain in left shoulder joint and arm and down to my fingers that never goes away completely. Primary doc said it was muscle/nerve pain. Will mention to my cardio now. I am always dizzy, balance issues that are unidentified. My grandmother died at 81 of a massive stroke (never woke up). I am 81. Hence why I read others' ideas. Still functioning but don't want to go out on the floor or not awakening in the a.m. Just read an article on baby aspirin. A study at Cleveland Clinic I believe which says taking even 81 mgs for blood thinning along with another blood thinner may actual cause problems for the elderly. I am on Eliquis which is destroying my skin. Considering Watchman. Just had two cardio versions and still went back into AFib. Cardio (electrician) says not a candidate for ablation which probably would not be successful. As I write this my left eye has started up again. So I'll follow this thread and maybe if enough folks share symptoms we can put together some questions that our docs can understand. There is so much they still do not know. I usually get some blank stares and have sort of quit complaining.

@scottrl Thank you for posting this! Extremely helpful to hear your journey!
