Chads 2 gives the same score with 2 for age and I for women, I asked a doctor at a medical school whether this applied to all women, he said yes. If you can supply the link, I will appreciate it. I do not think people just disintegrate at a certain age, especially if they have no serious disease. Thanks.

Here is the link to the CHADS2 calculation. https://www.mdcalc.com/cha2ds2-vasc-score-atrial-fibrillation-stroke-risk#next-steps
I will be asking my cardiologist in December how it is interpreted for a person with zero or only one incident of Afib.
