Good night. I have atrial fibrillation since December 2015. Been to a number of doctors. Been put on blood thinners, tambacor and lopressor. The afib attacks have increased over the past few months resulting in many visits to the er. I have been recommended for abalation however the doctor said I'm not a good candidate because I can't tolerate the blood thinners. I am 62 and has diabetes. I also have one of my thyroids removed. I'm post menoposal. Had my appendix removed six months prior to the onset of the afib.
Help!! Can anyone give me some insight or direction to take.
Thank you.
