We tend to look at diagnoses differently when WE are the patient.
Keep asking your Cardiologist and Electrophysiologist questions.

Your life and job are not screwed up! I'm sure the diagnosis was a shock, but at least now you can get the right treatment to stabilize the condition. Best of luck to you.

I was diagnosed two months ago with paroxysmal AF. I have a pacemaker for sick sinus syndrome and they found this AF when they did a pacemaker check. How could this be? It explained the possible TIAs I thought I was having. Many hospital online libraries have explanations for the different arrhythmias.

Did they put you on a medication? I was put on Toprol which I did not tolerate at all, and now Sotalol. I also have been taking a daily aspirin for several years. There was a very nice animation on Discovery Health, but I cannot find the web link at the moment. I'll keep looking for it.
