Yes, C19-mRNA-vaccine-caused induced myocarditis leading to paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) is infuriating!!! My life has been highjacked by it & by my preoccupation with finding ways to address, manage, & hopefully resolve my (still) paroxysmal AF. On top of the time & effort I am dedicating, I am spending a small fortune (worthwhile I believe) on technology (heart monitors--smartwatches plus a heat monitor that features a chest strap & two-lead sensors capable of 24/7 EKG recording, with machine-learnig software behind to flag & track normal vs. abnormal heart-rhythms as well as to measure, alert, & score heart strain, which helps immensely with my exercise routines--which I have had to dramatically scale back as I was "overexercising", & vagus nerve stimulators, etc.) & dietary supplements--which have helped me reduce my weekly Atrial Fibrillation Burden (a peer-reviewed scientific construct that is simply the amount of time the heart spends in AF over the total time measured, a statistic that only the Apple Watch measures)...(finally) after 8 consecutive weeks of increases!

I have learned so much from the Afibbers.org resource/Web site (the article above comes from it): https://research.afibbers.org/resourceslinks.

I am a confirmed admirer & follower of the now-deceased metabolic cardiologist, Stephen Sinatra. I aim to continue these lifestyle, dietary, & supplement interventions to reduce my AF Burden...down to the 2-3% level (11% & above is associated with increased risk for stroke).

In addition to the work of Stephen Sinatra, John Mandrola, Joel Khan, & even John Day, I am finding a number of other physicians (particularly within Functional Medicine) who espouse & practice one or another variation of metabolic cardiology....to address AF.

Yes, let's connect outside of this forum at some point.

Stay safe!

The Afibbers.org site i believe you turned me on to in the past. I always respected your holistic (or should I say Shoshin approach that I once sent a reply to you that I am aware what Shoshin is however you never responded to it😞). Regarding all the tech stuff I get it, however just having the Kardia Mobile device and walking around checking my pulse with my fingers is driving me crazy enough. Everyone tells me stop checking and live your life however I can’t and I’m drawn to the Kardia like a moth to a flame. And you know the flame kills the moth. I’m not being critical of your approach and methods many times I have complimented you on that topic. Like you my AFib is paroxysmal. However kicking and screaming I do take Eliquis to diminish stroke possibility. Whenever I go to the cardiologist or EP I always tell them if there is anyone who would like to TALK please feel free to give them my name and #. Of course it never happens. As I once suggested I’d be happy to give you my personal email and perhaps if you became comfortable we can then talk perhaps someday. And I would make the same offer to anyone on this Mayo chat site. Believe me I get it in this sick world you can’t be to careful. That’s why I push martial arts (thus my handle Krav Maga) Not to beat on people but if need be to hopefully extricate yourself out of a bad situation as well as the discipline etc. it brings in your life. I get so tired writing these long missives and so much is lost between the lines and in someone’s tone and annunciation. Let me know your thoughts. Feel Good!
