Glad to meet you. There are things docs do that can help counteract AFIBs, but not all work.

Do what you can to stay healthy, walk a bit, rest a bit, eat only what you need to feel ok, try to figure out what is stressing you. But the big thing is , you have come to the right place for support.

Any heart condition is a struggle, but with guidance you can learn to live with it and even have a good support network here.

My problem is PVCs, pre-ventrical contractions. I track them using a little ECG monitor my cardiologist advised me to get so I could see if they are worse or about the same following the ablation I had to try to terminate them. Mayo clinic has finally realized they are far more dangerous than AFIBs, but so little studies have been done.

Wellcome to the chat.

Welcome to the group. Mayo Clinic Connect is a great place to learn what others are going through, what treatments are available and how they work. Also it is a wonderful place to find support and bond with others with the same condition. I was diagnosed with A-Fib about 20 years ago and after a few ups and downs, treatment changes and lastly the Watchman implant, I'm doing well. What are your struggles and are you under a doctor's care?
