@foundryrat743 I am always glad to see personal stories of success, no matter on which side of the debate the person replying falls. That's what matters most, that doctors, smart people, help their patients find something they can live with, or tolerate, and that does a reasonably good job, a reliable job, of keeping the unwanted effects away. I am neutral on this seemingly never-ending juxtaposition of one thing or another that seems to happen all over the internet, unless the evidence for one side is overwhelming. The Watchman has doubtlessly saved many, many lives, and it does so silently, invisibly, and reliably, year after year. When it isn't a good fit, and this video suggests that it isn't a good fit, literally, for some atrial appendages, then the risks of anti-coagulation are about all that is left if we cant to reduce the risk of stroke in fibrillating patients to something more 'natural' for their age.
