Can anyone explain to me can you have AFIB without other heart issues causing it? In other words everyone posting on here that have AFIB had stress tests and echos etc done and everythign else is ok except for the AFIB? I know high blood pressure and sleep apnea can cause it- but I am wondering if it is a disease in itself or always secondary? ANYONE?
thanks

The afibbers website has an amazing archive of info on AF AND THEY ARE OPENING UP THE SITE FOR ALL TO USE. They are all sufferers and post successes and otherwise. Tip hints and comfort. It's not really a chatty site but they will respond ii and when they can.
The other very good site is Stop a Fib. Melanie Truehills. Lots of very good medical advice and info.

I have paroxysmal AF without any other heart issues. I do have Rheumatoid Arthritis and Prostate problems though. All part of life's rich pattern!
