Hi @rubywitch67,

I just wanted to tell you are not being such a pain in everyone's rear, and that it’s absolutely okay to feel bad for yourself or your situation – but more importantly, don’t forget to be kind and encouraging to yourself as well.
Even though managing a chronic condition or dealing with debilitating symptoms can be a tough journey, you are not alone. I’m so happy that you have chosen to be an active, participating member of the Connect community – we often feel like what we have to say is of not much value, but it is amazing what your shared experiences can mean to other members!
We all may have different causes of the battles we are fighting, but the battles themselves are the same, so I hope you know that you are in a good place to ask and get the support you need.

Kanaaz…...thank you for your kind words. This group has been a real life saver for me. When you have no one who understands even the basics of AFIB, let alone the medications and procedures required to control, manage or hopefully "cure" it, it can be very lonely and for people like me with anxiety issues, it can quickly become a daily nightmare. Realizing you are not alone in this battle is SO important and the peace of mind I've gained from being a member has been priceless. I really like and trust my doctors, but they so often talk "over our heads," I often come out of an appointment even more confused than when I went in and I'm not sure if they've answered my questions or not...….they most likely have, but it's lost in jargon I didn't understand. Which is why groups like these are of such vital importance to us lay people. I thank you and everyone who has taken their time to help me. Hopefully soon I will be able to help someone else.
