    • About Me

      I am a clinical laboratory quality control manager. I'm married and live on a little lake. Egrets, beavers, ducks and various other little animals bring peace in an otherwise busy life.

  • Support Groups

    • Close Atrial Fibrillation (AFib)

      I have persistent AFib and have been very disturbed with my quality of life since it started. I'm getting very little info from my physician and am so glad I found this group.

      Treatments

      Coumadin Working / Worked
      I've been on Coumadin for 23 years for a prosthetic mitral valve and have had no problems or side effects.
      Diltiazem Somewhat Helpful
      We are continuing to try higher and higher doses. Pulse rate has slowed from around 200 to 110. Side effects are many.
      Metoprolol Somewhat Helpful
      Still trying higher and higher doses. Main side effect is adverse lowering of blood pressure.
