Hello @jazmania12 and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. Having Afib and then facing surgery is an understandable concern as a patient. Can I start by asking if you've shared your concern with your surgeon and/or care team and if they have offered anything back to you?

Hello Amanda,
Actually, I have not had a discussion concerning Afib. So that is what I will do next. I've been in the process of getting a second opinion as it relates to the surgery. Additionally, I've a history of blood clots and that was the concern I discussed. I guess it over shadowed the Afib. But I will address my concern about Afib and see what will be said to my concern.
Thank you much,
