Guest guest Posted June 23, 2004 Report Share Posted June 23, 2004 Hello All, I've just joined the group, but am not new to AFib. I've had it for years and I finally had it during the day about 5 years ago. I got to the doctor when it was happening and for the FIRST time the doctor finally believed me. He put me in the hospital and they monitored me, but did nothing but give me Warfarin which made me unable to care for myself. I slept all day and didn't have the strength to move off the sofa. I continued this way for 9 months and finally had enough sense to go to Little Rock Heart Association and was prescribed with new medication that has helped me tremendously. Trandolapril (Mavik), and Amiodarone HCL. I used to have AF attacks three or four times A DAY. Now I have them maybe maybe once a week; normally after I exert myself in any way -- climbing stairs will always bring on AF.
