I’ve known about my irregular heartbeat since age 50-ish. There was no other diagnosis or cardiac referral made at that time. Again in my early 70’s, the closest thing to a diagnosis was having a severe episode that got me to the ER, was called an anomaly by a renowned cardiologist. “If it happens again, get to the ER and tell them to call me.” At age 78 I experienced a stroke which got me a ride to the ER via life flight. 60 days later it was determined my heart was pausing periodically for several seconds at a time, which resulted in having a pacemaker implant. I’m now pushing 81 with the assistance of meds and pacemaker…looking forward to continuing my happy and active lifestyle way into the future.
I chose to look at my Atrial Fibrillation from a personal point of view rather than a medical one. There seemed to be a current drug prescription or an electrical approach to the topic. Many believe that AF will double the number of cases in a decade. I have one daughter, a general practitioner, and another daughter with 30 years of experience as a nurse; she had a few years in ICU and the remainder in ER. From our communications with each of them, I believe I moderately understand the medical field from a patient's point of view. The first is that in 1974 I quit smoking after 35 years. This was accomplished well before my Atrial Fibrillation was diagnosed. During my earlier years, I had sleep apnea (both types), a heart-attacking virus, and a dangerous medication prescribed that destroyed electrical communication within my heart. In addition, for many years, my heart has been 100% dependent on a pacemaker. As a result, an early cardiology approach included blood thinners, a pacemaker, and water pills. Shortly before the beginning of the Covid-19-pandemic began, my prescriptions were altered to Pradaxa 150 mg twice daily, Farxiga 5 mg once daily, Metoprolol l50 mg once daily, Entresto 26 mg twice daily (later reduced to 13 mg, Toresimide 20 mg once daily, and Potassium 20 MEQ once daily. That is my background for the start of this discussion. Atrial Fibrillation remained a factor for years, and several medical facilities while I lived in California, Oregon, South Dakota, and now Minnesota. As I approached this problem (AF), my approach carefully evaluated my personal care, including lifestyle, diet, activities, medical prescriptions, and over-the-counter supplements such as vitamins, minerals, and antitoxins. The first change was reaching a 100% standard value in my total blood work values. Next was a dramatic reduction in my salt intake, resulting in a Toresimide reduction of over 75%. In later months it was decreased even more. My alcohol intake was moderate yet unnecessary, so I eliminated all alcohol. I increased my intake of fresh (not canned) fruits and a variety of steamed or raw vegetables. Slowly along with these items, I began losing weight from 305 lbs. to 225 lbs. over 18 months. My current BMI is between 34.8 and 35.3. As the essential values started to improve, I focused on rest/sleep combined with very mild exercise. Both types of sleep apnea, leg thrashing condition, a history of prostate cancer (prostate removed), and atrium and ventricle 100% depending on the pacemaker. Regarding rest/sleep, Melatonin was added to my daily intake. If Rem sleep was found, fine. If not, then stay in bed until rested. At the age of 84, this was answering many of my daily sleepiness. Leg thrashing is still there yet has decreased to almost a non-problem. After Prostate cancer surgery, I still must urinate several times a night, interrupting my rest. Within the last two months, I have found that Entresto was causing periods of nausea. First, I stopped taking Entresto for many days, and no nausea occurred. In collaboration with my Cardiologist, the dosage was reduced to 13 mg from 26 mg twice daily. After almost two years of changes, the result: As of December 01, 2021, I was called in for a medical appointment by the group that monitors my pacemaker and heart 24/7. The technician informed me that I was no longer in Atrial Fibrillation (AF), and the pacemaker settings were altered. As of July 2022, 7 months later, I am still NOT in Atrial Fibrillation. I hope my experience will add to your opinion and help others. I feel that my approach has helped me get out of AF and remain so.
This is fantastic help as my father has been running to ER excessively for many years with irregular chronic night time episodes. He has stents- he had quadrupple heart bipass - on many meds always heart issues- he drinks diet coke, chews tobacco, likes salty snacks- does not move around much at all- yet wants to have doctors fix it. I am really frustrated
I’ve experienced A-fib 3 times over the past 1 1/2 yrs. I drank a very sugary drink before each of the first two incidents, then thought I’d figured out the cause so I gave up sugar & didn’t have another problem for a year. Recently though I celebrated a special occasion & had a very sugary drink & the A-fib came back again. So I’m giving up ingesting big quantities of sugar. Keeping my fingers crossed, cause A-fib is terrible. Good luck to everyone.
Thats your trigger and its great that you have identified it. With me its obesity, alcohol and work stress. I am working on all of these and its very noticeable that the attacks have gone down from once a week or so since controlling these to maybe once per month. Still have a bunch of weight to lose and get my BP down. Retirement helped!
I FIXED MY SERIOUS, CHRONIC AFIB PROBLEM with good amounts of Vit B1 👈🏿 That fits with the correct cause of A Fib … not the heart but the NERVES needed to operate the heart. Since the B vitamins are well known to benefit the nerves … it fits perfectly that my AFIB was fixed with VIT B1 👈🏿 B1 is not toxic… so taking what seem to be high doses is quite safe. Only a small amount is absorbed. I took 2 or 3 250 Mg tablets per day. (Thiamine Hydroxide .. over the counter … nothing fancy) TRY IT. I feel sure it will work.
Great presentation - thank you so much Doctor Grewal! I especially like the emphasis on lifestyle habits that promote heart health. I was in heart failure (25% ejection fraction), but have largely recovered. I still have some ways to go, but am hopeful that the enlarged heart and AFib will continue to resolve as I maintain focus on my healing. The tools I use are: meditation, breathing exercises, exercise (walking and balance board), energy healing and diet (as organic as possible). My very special team of cardiologists are thrilled by my slow but steady recovery. FYI, I've had 3 cardio-versions and an ablation, but honestly, 2 years ago the future looked grim and now I'm taking only a very weak dose of 2 medications (metoprolol and xaralto) so I am beyond grateful!
Linda, Do you feel the ablation was much benefit to you? I’m struggling with deciding whether to get one or not. I’ve got palpitations each day, only a few, pvcs, pacs, etc. Flecainide didn’t eliminate them so cardiologist recommends ablation, I’m 59 with not other health issues, only take 25mg of metoprolol at bedtime. Can you offer any thoughts that might help? I don’t drink at all, very clean diet, exercise each day, heart is in great shape aside from the rhythm issues. Have only had 3 actual afib episodes, once had to be cardioverted the other 2 went back on it’s on after an hour or so. I just hate the thought of going thru an ablation. I’ve never had any kind of surgery before.
@@johngatsby1473 haven’t done anything yet John other than try a new magnesium supplement, called ReMag, it’s in liquid form, I think it has really helped !
Great detailed video. I encountered with A fib for years and the last esposide ended with irregular heart beat and cardioversion procedure @ the age of 43 with the doctor saying this is seen 60 and up in patients not 40 yr olds. We may be young but we still deal with stress overload now I'm on blood thinners and fatigue. Please take care of your heart everyone it's no joke having to deal with a stroke later in life.
Something that everybody should know if you're having arterial fibulation get your thyroid checked because it can be the problem and you don't have any heart issues
My husband at 82 had a pacemaker put in about a yr later he went into Afib, I had no idea what any of this was about until I happen to read this! Thank you Sir for putting this out there so we all can understand our hearts! It's in plain English were we can understand! Our dr nor nurse explained anything to us!
Also, look for signs of low magnesium level. Sodium, potassium, magnesium and calcium levels are very important, but apparently magnesium level influences the others too.
All i heard was the Magnesium level need is much lower than the Potassium needed, and yes those four things, but in correct ratios. Oft given with D3 and sone K2 ( directs Calcium placement to bones, not arteries, and more).
Thank you for your input about AFib. Excellent presentations. You cover all the MOST important topics that explains AFib. I understand what AFib. The underlying cause, medications, treatment, preventions, teaching, questions to ask the Cardiologist, the different doctors, cardiologist , the whole health team to care for you. Thank you so much👍👍👍👍👍
I’m getting an ablation operation this month and very nervous about it, but this presentation helped calm me a bit. My Afib only hits me once every two or three months, but when it does, I sometimes pass out. It’s very disabilitating to say the least!!! Had three ambulance rides because of it, and one after it hit me while driving, passing out, and then crashing my car. So this presentation confirmed what I am going through. Thanks so much.
You sure probably need magnesium citrate or glycinate and electrolytes ..watched this game for 42 years.. might try that first ..The lady on Eloquios more then likely had the stroke because she was on that ..
@@deborahaltman9323 Hello I'd be interested in hearing more from you about a.fib. I'm on Warfarin at present but hate being on it as I can't take most supplements while taking it. I went off it for a bit but back on now as they tell.me the risk of clot is greater than a bleed on the brain. It's a very scary illness.
@@agathacrowley718 Yep. That's the only thing I really don't care about taking is a blood thinner! I am on xarelto. Haven't had an AFib episode in over a year now, but the doctors say your risk of stroke from blood clots does NOT go away just because you don't have AFib for an extended period of time!!#UGH! Even folks who have an ablation to permanently Stop AFib doesn't stop your high risk of stroke! What a Bummer.
Had an initial episode last week. Terrifying! As someone struggling with a life long anxiety issues, this is hell for me. However after watching this, I realize there are actions I can take such as losing weight, keeping my blood sugar under control as well as my BP. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that the initial episode happened after vacation on which I had terrible insomnia. I’m having a sleep study done, have an appointment to talk to someone about the returned anxiety and will take better care of myself. I think the worst thing is that this hangs over your head and takes the joy from your life.
Wow. I could have written most of your post myself! I also had my first afib episode very recently. About two weeks ago. Yes, very scary stuff to be sure. I am now on a beta-blocker plus blood thinner. Also continuing to take 5 mgs of lisinophrel for blood pressure. You are right about the worst part being that it hangs over your head!! Are you now taking Afib meds as well?
@@gloriamaryhaywood2217 Thank you so much for your reply. Support is so important with this condition! Knowing you aren't alone makes a world of difference. When I wrote that post, the episode of AF had just happened and I was in a terrible space mentally and emotionally. I was very anxious and depressed. The cardiologist put me on Metoprolol (Beta Blocker) to control my heart rate and Xarelto. He also put me on Losarten for blood pressure. Physically, I'm taking care of myself and started going back to the gym. It hasn't been easy, but the biggest hurdle has been my mental and emotional health, which was really rocked by the episode. I started seeing a therapist for the anxiety and I also joined a support group on FaceBook called Afib Releif, which is run by a doctor who also has a history of afib. These two things really helped me. It took about four and a half weeks for the anxiety to calm and for me to start feeling hopeful again. Be careful about what you look up online because there is a lot of negative information about AF and much of it probably doesn't even apply to you. There are a lot of people who suffer from AF and live full lives in that group as well and they are the ones to listen to. You should also look up York Cardiology on CZcams. There are some really great videos. I reached to everyone i know and found at about 10 people that I know, or are connected to someone I know have different variations of AF. I was shocked. It seems to be an epidemic! If you want to email me, you can find me on FaceBook. At this point, I feel like I appreciate my life more than I have in a while but it took me a while and some therapy to get here. I watch my self-talk and don't allow myself to wonder if it's going to "happen now." Having faith helps me a lot.
Gloria Mary Haywood I would like to communicate. I also converted to NSR on my own after just a few hours. I’ve been reading about Vagal AF. My one episode happened as I drank a frozen smoothie. It felt like a spasm at first. Are there any support groups you recommend? I’ve looked for them and found a couple in which people seemed negative. I need positive people who understand what I’m going through.

There was no pain at all, but I Knew something was up all the same. Verrry Strange sensation!! There are other questions I'd be interested in regarding your health status and such, but I'll just wait to hear from you thru email, okay? I'm so glad I bumped into you here! It's good to have somebody to communicate with regarding this new condition!☺
@@Ariadne147 Thought to drop you a quick message. Just tonight I experienced another AFib episode. But it was mild, and I stayed calm and used some techniques that I have learned about in being able to bring ones ownself out of AFib WithOut having to go to the hospital. And Yay!, it Worked!!! I was able to get back in NSR in about 15 minutes. (Thought that might serve to ease your mind somewhat!😉)
@@angshumansingha9688 You are very young with your whole life left yet to live! You will be fine. Just eat clean nourishing meals, exercise a few times a week, and reduce any negative stress. Have you considered an ablation?..?It's very Successful in Stopping Afib in it's tracks!!😎 No reason to live in fear. Many people with Afib live long, active, and full lives!💜😉
My husband had bad sleep apnea for years but we never considered treatment as I did not hear him stop breathing. He quit smoking and excess coffee after retiring from the navy. (Stopped smoking in 1985 after 17 yr). We exercise, etc but he is the beef and fries eater. He also eats all veggies. He began occasional Afib in 2019. Slammed with Covid in Mar 2021. He hadcovid pneumonia. He has VA disability so all treatment at the VA. Had to be out on heart meds, blood thinners and a pacemaker. They aren’t sure Covid aggravated it all. His CPap is working pretty good so far. He wears a monitor every so often for keeping track. They say he has 40 or so Afib occurances a day. He feels nothing. The tests and stress test, photos, etc showed no blockages or heart problems. Weird. We both take excellent supplements and antioxidants, etc. Vit D3 and magnesium, calcium citrate. Not large amounts.
I am experiencing the same thing - I have a pacemaker because of bradycardia - got it installed in 2012. No real problems - in shape, eat decent, and if they hadn’t said anything about Afib - I wouldn’t have even known I had it. The pacemaker thing surprised the dickens out of everyone - because you would never think I would be a candidate. I got put on Xarelto yesterday and of course scheduled for a sleep apnea test next month. Very upsetting.
@@QuantumOfSolace1 How did your sleep apnea test go? did you do anything after their diagnosis on your sleep issue that could affect Afib? Hope all the best.
@@LinnyL68 if you read the studies for amieoderone you will not take it. It was approved as a last ditch effort drug and should only be taken when all else fails and you think you may die. It is not a good drug. After we researched it and really dug in, plus finding people talking about how their loved ones died on it, my husband stopped taking it. He also got a bad cough on it, most people in the study died of a lung issue but it was approved because their afib stopped before their lungs failed...
Yea I had a heart attack with Afib also when I went in for bilateral shoulder pain and high BP. I've had rhomdomyolosis in 2015 atorastatin, sleep apnea and hemangioma in the liver. Oh and a right side TIA in 09. I'm recently 63 yr old male.
Thanks you very much for this presentation! It’s comprehensive and clear especially for newbies like me. Being a support person and a potential candidate for other heart diseases, I’m very grateful for the time and efforts put into this presentation!
1 second ago I've had ablation and it has not worked. I'm looking at another CZcams video which is interesting by DR JOHN BERGMAN-CARDIAC ARRHYTHMIA'S-THE MISSING LINK
john houston Say buddy before you get burned try a life style change. Like start eating real food and exercising more. Ablation does not last for ever. In other words you will be entering your seventies with a burned heart, and if you don’t take steps to change your health habits, you will still have AF. You will be worse off!
Did you receive an ablation? I just had a PMaker and 2 wks later an ablation and I feel great..... no issues for 2 months now! I eat healthy, walk at least 3-4 miles a day and drink plenty of water.
I have had two ablations and five cardioversions and my AFib is still with me. I take Eliquis and get by. I am also working on weight loss and exercise routine. I really believe there is no universal solutions to AFib. My recommendation is to find the best cardiologist with electrophysiology as a speciality. I have two of them and they have kept me going into my 70’s and I hope beyond.
How heartbreaking that my husband died from taking amiodarone (for a-fib) as he developed pulmonary fibrosis. So people, try to have a second opinion if taking it or watch out for such medication-it's fatal!
I am so sorry for your loss. A cardiologist was really pushing for me to take this med. when I was first diagnosed with Afib. I got the prescription filled, but when I read the info sheet that came with the pills, it said that one of the potential "side effects" is death! I told her that I wasn't ready for that side effect. She said that typically is a problem only after being on the med. for several years. If I may ask, how long had your husband been taking it?
@@jack-lo7vd He was in his senior years, so that medication is quite deadly to the elderly-even at 200mg. Yes, at 200mg dosage my husband developed severe and permanent lung damage. Perhaps those who are younger have better tolerance.
I'm sorry... we did a deep dive on that when the doctor gave it to us. It is a last ditch effort medication and the study results were terrible. The doctor didn't tell us that though
This Cardiologist states that Atrial fibrillation (Afib) is a heart condition. What is wrong with that? Stating that atrial fibrillation (Afib) is a heart problem, specifically when referring to a person with an otherwise healthy heart, is like stating that Parkinson’s disease is a hand problem. That’s clearly wrong. Would Parkinson’s specialists be Orthopedic hand surgeons? No. Would Parkinson’s specialists operate on the patient’s hands to stop them trembling? No. That’s the problem with healthy heart Afib treatment and research by Cardiologists. Healthy heart Afib is actually a problem of the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS), not the heart. Signaling from the autonomic nervous system to the heart is where the problem lies. Just like Parkinson's does not originate in the hands, for instance, healthy heart afib does not originate in the heart. Therefore, Afib specialty belongs with ANS specialists. Until the problem is focused upon by the right specialists and researchers, new treatments for the problem will still focus on tinkering with the heart. Catheter ablation and pacemaker insertion damage the heart. That’s barbaric, misconceived, usually not very effective according to research, and can seriously shorten the lifespan of the patient. That makes zero sense. Moreover, in the for-profit medical system in the United States, being branded with a heart problem is to render a person uninsurable or highly expensive to insure. Doctors and medical billing and coders brand you with heart disease if you have Afib. That’s tantamount to an injustice. Nervous system specialists are starting to focus on Afib as originating in the hypothalamus in the brain, part of the command center for the ANS. Because we are starting to discover the complexity of communication between the heart, organs and brain, especially by way of the vagus nerve, locating the origin of the afib may be very complex. DLC; Albuquerque, NM; 18 January, 2019.
Hi everything you just said is what I most told my cardiologist about my afib they say that my heart is healthy but ask me if I wanted too do the ablation I said no that afib is not a heart problem is the nervous system that comes from the spine.. I just want too know how too fix afib
Thank you, this is one of the most interesting and enlightened responses I have seen on YT. I have "Lone" Afib meaning there is no apparent cause. The heart itself is healthy, so it's a signaling issue. They just refer to it as "sick sinus syndrome" but that doesn't really address the ANS component. I have wondered what role the Vagus nerve plays in all this.
It's a heart condition...obviously my heart does not function well although it looks normal in size, etc. No, I don't have CAD but I wish I had that and not a-fib because one can do something about CAD with a strict diet and meds but nothing can be done about a-fib. I do everything right: no smoking, no drinking, no caffeine, no drugs, no salt, no sugar, no fats....I am a vegan....still, no matter what I do I still have the horrible episodes.
I was diagnosed in August 2018. They believe it's due to sleep apnea because the two episodes I experienced happened while I was sleep which wakes me up from my sleep. Super scary. Now I'm on eliquis 5mg, Profenone, Diltiazem 360mg, and Losartin. I'm trying to get off of these medications by losing weight with the gastric sleeve surgery this summer. I'm too young for this AFIB business.
Eloquis is deadly! Causing bleeding from ALL Orfices. Profenone caused my hair to fall out, Losartan caused gasping and exhaustion, with shortness of breath!! Please wean yourself off these chemicals if at ALL possible. You will feel much better after a week or two. Only on Metoprolol 12.5mg now every morning, with multivitamin and a Probiotic. PLENTY of water intake with daily walking. Feeling the BEST in a long time at 65, and Cardiologist is amazed!❤️
awesome presentation! Dr. I need your help my son is experiencing a lot of the symptoms that you speak of, and he has even had surgery but the problem still exists. WE NEED YOU!
Just two months ago I was a very healthy 64 year old woman except for a broken foot. Without me knowing, blood clots formed in my right leg. Long story short I just survived a massive saddle pe when a large clot hit my lung. After eight days in hospital, I came home with heart failure, high blood pressure and Afib. My cardiologist hasnt told me anything about what to expect with Afib. I have been reading articles about it but I've discovered that I learn more from everyones comments. If anyone has some helpful information I could use it. I guess doctors assume we just automatically know what to do or they are too busy to take the time to explain. Any help would be appreciated.
Hello Rhonda, hope you are feeling well. Sorry you have been dealing with health problems. I am 71years old, have persistent a/fib since last October 2021. The breathlessness/fatigue/ were all working on my system for months, before I persuaded my gp to have ecg done. I have had cardioversion Jan 19th this year. It says 'successful ' on the report. It has not been the miracle I was hoping for, but I do feel a bit better. I will have a review with cardiologist, but when??I am really in a limbo-type situation, nervous, sensing fluttering heart beat and rhythm, high and low blood pressure. Constant rushing/hissing/air escaping sounds on the right side /inside my head. Feels like a lot of pressure. Impossible to get access to a gp. Am determined to keep going. Here's to better days ahead.
How about if my cardiologist respond to my question is, “your old what do you expect?” My question was why is my skin with so much blood spot, red blot. The red blots are in my arms and legs. Eliquis is my blood thinner! She said no do not reduce the amt. I did I decrease by 25%. Red blots gone and no afibs attack. Sometimes one got to do some common sense.
I have atrial fibrillation.It can be debilitating with some episodes.These lectures are very useful to understand whats going on.A busy cardiologist can't give you all this time to explain
I know breathing certain ways can help at times but I don't know it there 99% of the time but it's there every time a Dr puts a stethoscope to me. Doesn't keep me from doing most activities just maybe tire more quickly
I was told I had AF but I do not have the symptoms that you talk about, I have shortsge of breath and cannot walk far or do any work without loosing my breath, it's very tiresome, who is right,
I suffer from Afib - well, to be correct, I found out taking Semaglutide 0,5mg once / week (I do not suffer from diabetes) eliminates at least 95% of my Afib attacks. Before I started taking Semaglutide, a cup of coffee very often (daily) triggered Afib to run for 10-20 hours. I never had electrochock to return into sinus mode. I am well aware that Semaglutide isn't indicative for the problem but it works better than anything else (Betablocker etc.). I take bloodthinners (Apixaban) to prevent bloodcloths.
Is it required to take 2 tablets of Eliquis, 5 mg each, a day? Why? I change mine to 1.5 tablets a day., as my skin is full of red blots.. with 1.5 tablets, no more red blots in my arms and legs.
I had blood clots in both legs. Had surgery in both legs. Pulse seems to be good in both legs. How can I help the inflammation in my legs. I take Coumadin.
I have had 2 strokes in 2 years without too much permanent damage...my eyes were finished somewhat and memory affected. Now on placix, astrostatin, and baby aspirin. Doing loop recorder checking for AFib. Not overweight, blood work good, walk 2 miles daily and try to eat healthy. Doc has no idea if this test comes back no afib. It's a big question. Not looking forward to this loop recorder. Wire a heart monitor for one month on first stroke. Showed nothing.
I had a regiment of drugs which failed and a cardioversion which brought it to normal rhythm but an EKG a week later I was back in afib , what can I do now ????
Hello. My afib caused me to have a stroke. Blood clot in the brain even using elequis blood thinner medication. I feel my afib happening almost daily. Thanks
Doctor said sleep apnea or not sleeping well could cause Afib. Does anyone have any tips to not wake up a few times in middle of sleep, and then take 1-3 hours to fall back to sleep?
I've had AFib for three years. I'm 73 years old and disabled. My heart specialist did a cryo ablation a month ago. I'm still recovering. I am a retired cardiac nurse and I know when I am in AFib. I feel weak, dizzy and do not function well. Recently had to be cardioverted. Was in a sinus rhythm for two days and now am back in AFib. Don't know what my doctor will do now.
Me thinketh BigPharma making., customers from the cradle to......the grave!@!?😝😜😅😎 P.S. Great to hear this doctor also talking about......prevention!!!😉
Dr Very nice awareness creation on heart related issues . I have been taking Magnesium which relaxes muscles . Do you recommend Magnesium . Dr Denis Goodman is practicing Magnesium therapy
Just an amazing, informative presentation.. Congratulations. May I suggest that you simply substitute a pause to replace "ahs" , "you know", and others. A pause is okay for the listener. Clearly more acceptable and less distracting. However, the presentation was well organized and presented and informative..
That's a little harsh on the presenter who did great job. I guess it will be hard not to have any pause and still seem natural, in such long presentation session.
Hey doc... if sleep cause it.. wouldn't that be low oxygen level.. I wake up in afib. Start deep breathing and it corrects.. But when it trigger when I'm awake doing somthing.. it take 10 20 correct. I can go IV bar get high dose of mag. Etc. It correct in within 2 hours.
Nice presentation up to the point of Eat Right. This info is just not helpful. Sugar/refined carb are the enemy of weight loss, fats can help, electrolytes such as potassium and magnesium help big time. A little alcohol may be too much and coffee is not the devil it can help get you moving.
@@michellen2325 I drink lots of coffee per day. While it may trigger AFib for some it does not seem to affect me. Still drink the same amount of coffee each day and have not had an AFib episode in over a year now!? I believe my AFib has got to do with the vagus nerve connection.
Pretty good job, but would like to have seen pictures too....and what about SUGAR and so many soft drinks people are drinking and kids the most ....I don't see why Parents would let kids have sodas at such an early age anyways, and even limit their consumption at home, just don't buy it.....you drink something like that in front of kids of course they will want it, and you say no ....then they will start drinking it as soon as they can, even sneak around and drink it.... don't start it with them and they won't be wanting to drink it with every meal....water is the best thing you can give your kids.....we all should drink more water.....who needs all that sugar....last I heard was 13 tsp. sugar to a can of soda !!! may even be more.....maybe just have it on special occasions..... and just look at the money you will be saving.....save it for a vacation.....
Had a tripple bypass +2 and am not on any meds, and recently one er doc has said to me that I. Have afib...but cardiologist no tx it.also have blockages behind left knee and L ankle, leg cramps more recently. Am looking for TX may try Texas..txt me..please
I have the procedure that they're talkin about everything I've had an hour to 34 years I've never had an I've never had enough and I have one little episode in that whole time in about 4 years and under control I'm taking the right drugs are so I learned a little bit more exactly what they said in the guy was talking about very interesting very educational so I know I'm doing some right and I know more what's going on in my life I want to go another 30 years if I can do it I don't know if I can do it I'm getting pretty old now but it it's a condition like anyting else and I had that procedure done we go in the hospital that night to leave the next day I've never had an episode after that thank God they were science today that's all I got to say
Thanks for the Info. I am 31year old male, work out daily, healthy individual who recently had a cardioversion after heart rate was as high as 165. No family history no drug use etc. Drs could not and still do not know what caused it. All tests showed nothing conclusive, but yet even after I still fell like something is wrong off. Random palpitations and sporadic heart rate.. any advice would be greatly appreciated .. Thanks
Get your vitamin D levels really high.Ditto B12. And use transdermal and liposomal magnesium. Also high dose C and D-ribose/COQ10 and lipoic acid. Try the Heart Math programme.
I have tachycardia caused by certain food additives. BHA, BHT, TBHQ, aspartame, paramycin in cheese, msg, and something in bacon, not sure which one, are the specific additives I have been able to pin down. As long as I'm very careful about what I eat, I don't have any problems.
A person's heart rate relates to their breathing cycle. In other words, when the person breathes in, their heart rate increases, and when they breathe out, the rate decreases.
my husband was in hospital for week and half latlely and when asking the doctor why he got it he said its part of getting old my husband is 81 was first time he had this and was on no chemical meds for the past five years , i was a nurse in my younger days and looking at his blood tests of the past few years it dawned on me i am sure he got this because of his electrolytes not all on top level but that was dismissed by the specialist he said its got nothing todo with what he had what was upsetting is that first thing they prescribed was a statin drug what ever for ? his cholesterol is perfect i gave up on trying to figure out the way some people work it out, your electrolytes combo are made up of Calcium, Magnesium , Potassium ,sodium and chlorides on the test his potassium and sodium was very low ,, I think also people should know if you drink pure water it washes out your sodium thats why so many young ones die after competitions where they do sports or something then drink a liter or two water and drop dead , put a teaspoon of lemon in your water and the water splits in chloride and sodium and you will not have that problem ever
@Heidi Fouche My electrolytes mineral levels were all normal in blood test, but it did not prevent a Afib that kept heart rate at 150 bpm for almost whole day before going to ER to get it fixed.
Try getting nailed by lightning. I wasn't trying and got nailed in 75 and AFIB and short term blindness resulted. Nothing they can do for me. They tried everything.
EKG or ECG? If it's electro-cardio-gram, then it's ECG. What does EKG stand for and is it different from an ECG? They shouldn't be so confusing when attempting to educate people.

I've had ablation and it has not worked. I'm looking at another CZcams video which is interesting by DR JOHN BERGMAN-CARDIAC ARRHYTHMIA'S-THE MISSING LINK
I am planning to have an ablation. I’m sorry it has not worked for you I’m not sure how successful mine would be, but my doctor said it’s the only chance since I have a low blood pressure and cannot take Betta-blockers
Me too , it didn't work, beta blockers don't work , it's so stressful, I have daily episodes 3 and four times a day even on beta blockers, doctors warn you about certain triggers but I say BS because I dont use , alcohol, prescription drugs, marijuana, sugared foods , caffeine blah blah blah , and i still have major episodes, in fact 90 % of mine wake me up from a sleep, so I guess sleep is my trigger , these trigger items mean nothing to me, why is sleeping a damn trigger
@@awakeningblacksheep9610 I don't know but I totally believe that these things should be treated holistically. Burning heart muscle to 'fix' this doesn't make sense
@@ryanborder189 Do you know any holistic physicians who treat Afib? Afib is a major money maker for Big Pharma. What is the underlying cause of Afib? Drugs just treat the symptoms - the usual approach of the Western medical mafia. No large-scale studies will ever be conducted using natural substances or vitamins which Big Pharma hates with a passion.
@@anneburich3913 No Anne I don't but I'm currently on a Keto diet(i'm not 'fat' , I just wanted to lose 20lbs) which would bring me to my lowest weight since I was 20. I'm relatively fit but I have become convinced that the key to good health generally is controlling insulin levels in the blood and I'm convinced that this also plays a part in Afib. I have been taking for a few years supplements and lots of people have defiecencies in the body(magnesium, potassium, zinc) so i take all of the above plus there is lots of evidence that gut health is key to your heart health too so take a pro biotic but not those drinks that have tons of sugar in them. I'm also pretty much tee total now but I will have a drink if I want one...I just don't usually want one and I had already given up smoking over a decade ago and recreational drugs. I know for me that stress is also a trigger so I try not to let myself get wound up. But the great thing Anne is the internet is a great resource so start looking on there and on CZcams. One of the things I have learned is not to allow it to scare me and even when I'm at the gym and have an attack I just wait for it to pass and then carry on. I do know a great homeopathy pharmacy in London where they also do consultations. I haven't personally had one but they have a great reputation and I know them all personally and know that they are all committed to it and genuine and good people. Hope this helps a little-keep positive!
Hi, I have been on Metropolol for about 4 yrs now. Please don't frighten ppl about the medicine. All meds aren't for everyone. I have been on prozac since diagnosed with Cronic Fatigue Syndrome. I have done great with it, but I have talked to a couple of ppl and they had problems. One put a fist thru the wall. Yet, others it is an answer.
Hi again, I was on a low dose BP med.After about a yr i began to have reaction. My throat began to close. My dr said, if I would have taken it for a couple more days, I could have died. Medicine is needed to keep us alive. There is always the need to notice when something is off.
The body is electric - a "spark" fires your heart. There is a very small voltage across the cell membrane. The body's regulation of this v determines the permeability of it and thus the allowed entry of various nutrients and minerals from the extracellular fluid and into the cell. EMF radiation and electric fields negatively affect this v and cause more substances than normal to be allowed entry. Calcium is the most important one as too much of it makes the heart race and palpitate - hence the need for Calcium Channel Blockers. Wifi, cell towers and specially five gg are very potent Emf radiation emitters and completely - and proven - capable of filling the bill. That is why there is an increase in Afib. There! now you know (as if it was unknown) what the problem is and you can fix it in you next video...but I aint holding my breath as that would be worse than afib
Unfortunately the medical doctors treat symptoms rather than fixing the cause. In most cases afib is attributed to a musculoskeletal abnormality in the thoracic area of spine.....thats where a chiropractor comes in to help
@@ronalddavis6457 god has nothing to do with it, I've lived with major afib for 7 years now , I had ablation and it didn't work in fact it's worse now after ablation and I was a Pastor and worship leader, I would get major episodes during church while singing praises to god , I would pray it would stop but I would have to go to the Hospital and get shot with Adenosine, god wouldn't help me but doctors did , I still live with this stressful miserable condition and still no god helping, i am no longer a Pastor nor believe in this god anymore, if god is real god certainly doesn't care about people
I’ve known about my irregular heartbeat since age 50-ish. There was no other diagnosis or cardiac referral made at that time. Again in my early 70’s, the closest thing to a diagnosis was having a severe episode that got me to the ER, was called an anomaly by a renowned cardiologist. “If it happens again, get to the ER and tell them to call me.”
At age 78 I experienced a stroke which got me a ride to the ER via life flight. 60 days later it was determined my heart was pausing periodically for several seconds at a time, which resulted in having a pacemaker implant. I’m now pushing 81 with the assistance of meds and pacemaker…looking forward to continuing my happy and active lifestyle way into the future.
jno blood thinners (anticoagulents) during all of these years?
I chose to look at my Atrial Fibrillation from a personal point of view rather than a medical one. There seemed to be a current drug prescription or an electrical approach to the topic. Many believe that AF will double the number of cases in a decade. I have one daughter, a general practitioner, and another daughter with 30 years of experience as a nurse; she had a few years in ICU and the remainder in ER. From our communications with each of them, I believe I moderately understand the medical field from a patient's point of view.
The first is that in 1974 I quit smoking after 35 years. This was accomplished well before my Atrial Fibrillation was diagnosed. During my earlier years, I had sleep apnea (both types), a heart-attacking virus, and a dangerous medication prescribed that destroyed electrical communication within my heart. In addition, for many years, my heart has been 100% dependent on a pacemaker. As a result, an early cardiology approach included blood thinners, a pacemaker, and water pills. Shortly before the beginning of the Covid-19-pandemic began, my prescriptions were altered to Pradaxa 150 mg twice daily, Farxiga 5 mg once daily, Metoprolol l50 mg once daily, Entresto 26 mg twice daily (later reduced to 13 mg, Toresimide 20 mg once daily, and Potassium 20 MEQ once daily. That is my background for the start of this discussion. Atrial Fibrillation remained a factor for years, and several medical facilities while I lived in California, Oregon, South Dakota, and now Minnesota.
As I approached this problem (AF), my approach carefully evaluated my personal care, including lifestyle, diet, activities, medical prescriptions, and over-the-counter supplements such as vitamins, minerals, and antitoxins.
The first change was reaching a 100% standard value in my total blood work values. Next was a dramatic reduction in my salt intake, resulting in a Toresimide reduction of over 75%. In later months it was decreased even more. My alcohol intake was moderate yet unnecessary, so I eliminated all alcohol. I increased my intake of fresh (not canned) fruits and a variety of steamed or raw vegetables. Slowly along with these items, I began losing weight from 305 lbs. to 225 lbs. over 18 months. My current BMI is between 34.8 and 35.3.
As the essential values started to improve, I focused on rest/sleep combined with very mild exercise. Both types of sleep apnea, leg thrashing condition, a history of prostate cancer (prostate removed), and atrium and ventricle 100% depending on the pacemaker.
Regarding rest/sleep, Melatonin was added to my daily intake. If Rem sleep was found, fine. If not, then stay in bed until rested. At the age of 84, this was answering many of my daily sleepiness. Leg thrashing is still there yet has decreased to almost a non-problem. After Prostate cancer surgery, I still must urinate several times a night, interrupting my rest.
Within the last two months, I have found that Entresto was causing periods of nausea. First, I stopped taking Entresto for many days, and no nausea occurred. In collaboration with my Cardiologist, the dosage was reduced to 13 mg from 26 mg twice daily.
After almost two years of changes, the result: As of December 01, 2021, I was called in for a medical appointment by the group that monitors my pacemaker and heart 24/7. The technician informed me that I was no longer in Atrial Fibrillation (AF), and the pacemaker settings were altered. As of July 2022, 7 months later, I am still NOT in Atrial Fibrillation.
I hope my experience will add to your opinion and help others. I feel that my approach has helped me get out of AF and remain so.
This is fantastic help as my father has been running to ER excessively for many years with irregular chronic night time episodes. He has stents- he had quadrupple heart bipass - on many meds always heart issues- he drinks diet coke, chews tobacco, likes salty snacks- does not move around much at all- yet wants to have doctors fix it.

Melatonin for heart problems
I’ve experienced A-fib 3 times over the past 1 1/2 yrs. I drank a very sugary drink before each of the first two incidents, then thought I’d figured out the cause so I gave up sugar & didn’t have another problem for a year. Recently though I celebrated a special occasion & had a very sugary drink & the A-fib came back again. So I’m giving up ingesting big quantities of sugar. Keeping my fingers crossed, cause A-fib is terrible. Good luck to everyone.
That’s great Cindy. Thanks for sharing.
Thats your trigger and its great that you have identified it. With me its obesity, alcohol and work stress. I am working on all of these and its very noticeable that the attacks have gone down from once a week or so since controlling these to maybe once per month. Still have a bunch of weight to lose and get my BP down. Retirement helped!
I FIXED MY SERIOUS, CHRONIC AFIB PROBLEM with good amounts of Vit B1 👈🏿
That fits with the correct cause of A Fib …
not the heart
but the NERVES needed to operate the heart.
Since the B vitamins are well known to benefit the nerves … it fits perfectly that my AFIB was fixed with VIT B1 👈🏿
B1 is not toxic… so taking what seem to be high doses is quite safe. Only a small amount is absorbed.
I took 2 or 3 250 Mg tablets
per day.
(Thiamine Hydroxide .. over the counter … nothing fancy)
TRY IT. I feel sure it will work.
@@snowyowl6892 Try eating a well-balanced diet as food is better absorbed.
Great presentation - thank you so much Doctor Grewal! I especially like the emphasis on lifestyle habits that promote heart health. I was in heart failure (25% ejection fraction), but have largely recovered. I still have some ways to go, but am hopeful that the enlarged heart and AFib will continue to resolve as I maintain focus on my healing. The tools I use are: meditation, breathing exercises, exercise (walking and balance board), energy healing and diet (as organic as possible). My very special team of cardiologists are thrilled by my slow but steady recovery. FYI, I've had 3 cardio-versions and an ablation, but honestly, 2 years ago the future looked grim and now I'm taking only a very weak dose of 2 medications (metoprolol and xaralto) so I am beyond grateful!
yoga works
Linda, Do you feel the ablation was much benefit to you? I’m struggling with deciding whether to get one or not. I’ve got palpitations each day, only a few, pvcs, pacs, etc. Flecainide didn’t eliminate them so cardiologist recommends ablation, I’m 59 with not other health issues, only take 25mg of metoprolol at bedtime. Can you offer any thoughts that might help? I don’t drink at all, very clean diet, exercise each day, heart is in great shape aside from the rhythm issues. Have only had 3 actual afib episodes, once had to be cardioverted the other 2 went back on it’s on after an hour or so. I just hate the thought of going thru an ablation. I’ve never had any kind of surgery before.
@@blakemoore666 what did you end up doing?
@@johngatsby1473 haven’t done anything yet John other than try a new magnesium supplement, called ReMag, it’s in liquid form, I think it has really helped !
Please sleep at least 8 hours every day and eat 80% of your food from steamed vegtables.
Great detailed video. I encountered with A fib for years and the last esposide ended with irregular heart beat and cardioversion procedure @ the age of 43 with the doctor saying this is seen 60 and up in patients not 40 yr olds. We may be young but we still deal with stress overload now I'm on blood thinners and fatigue. Please take care of your heart everyone it's no joke having to deal with a stroke later in life.
If you have AF then anticoagulant pills prevent brain emboli
Something that everybody should know if you're having arterial fibulation get your thyroid checked because it can be the problem and you don't have any heart issues
It took them 4 years to figure this out for me soon as I had my thyroid treated the did the a fib went away
@@charliemeans2999 Hi Charlie, I read your comments on AFIB. Could I ask if you were hypo- thyroid (low) or hyperthyroid (high?)
My husband at 82 had a pacemaker put in about a yr later he went into Afib, I had no idea what any of this was about until I happen to read this! Thank you Sir for putting this out there so we all can understand our hearts! It's in plain English were we can understand!
Our dr nor nurse explained anything to us!
Vit B1. Vit B1. Vit B1
it’s non toxic -- so high doses will be fine.
imo and in my experience.
Also, look for signs of low magnesium level. Sodium, potassium, magnesium and calcium levels are very important, but apparently magnesium level influences the others too.
Iron levels as well. My atrial fib engages when my iron levels are very low.
Utube article wrote against Magnesium w/ Afib. Which is right?
All i heard was the Magnesium level need is much lower than the Potassium needed, and yes those four things, but in correct ratios. Oft given with D3 and sone K2 ( directs Calcium placement to bones, not arteries, and more).
I speak to my cardiologist tomorrow regarding treatment or procedure & I have found this presentation very helpful
Thank you for your input about AFib. Excellent presentations. You cover all the MOST important topics that explains AFib. I understand what AFib. The underlying cause, medications, treatment, preventions, teaching, questions to ask the Cardiologist, the different doctors, cardiologist , the whole health team to care for you. Thank you so much👍👍👍👍👍
😊
This could not have been laid out more clearly. Excellent.
I’m getting an ablation operation this month and very nervous about it, but this presentation helped calm me a bit. My Afib only hits me once every two or three months, but when it does, I sometimes pass out. It’s very disabilitating to say the least!!! Had three ambulance rides because of it, and one after it hit me while driving, passing out, and then crashing my car. So this presentation confirmed what I am going through. Thanks so much.
Same to me. Happens every 2 mths last for 3hours since 3 yrs ago. But now last for 12 hours then went to hospital got injection then gone
@@alexgunawan5673 what was in the injection?

@@deborahaltman9323 Hello I'd be interested in hearing more from you about a.fib. I'm on Warfarin at present but hate being on it as I can't take most supplements while taking it.

@@agathacrowley718 Yep. That's the only thing I really don't care about taking is a blood thinner! I am on xarelto.

Had an initial episode last week. Terrifying! As someone struggling with a life long anxiety issues, this is hell for me. However after watching this, I realize there are actions I can take such as losing weight, keeping my blood sugar under control as well as my BP. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that the initial episode happened after vacation on which I had terrible insomnia. I’m having a sleep study done, have an appointment to talk to someone about the returned anxiety and will take better care of myself. I think the worst thing is that this hangs over your head and takes the joy from your life.
Wow. I could have written most of your post myself! I also had my first afib episode very recently. About two weeks ago. Yes, very scary stuff to be sure. I am now on a beta-blocker plus blood thinner. Also continuing to take 5 mgs of lisinophrel for blood pressure. You are right about the worst part being that it hangs over your head!! Are you now taking Afib meds as well?
@@gloriamaryhaywood2217 Thank you so much for your reply. Support is so important with this condition! Knowing you aren't alone makes a world of difference. When I wrote that post, the episode of AF had just happened and I was in a terrible space mentally and emotionally. I was very anxious and depressed. The cardiologist put me on Metoprolol (Beta Blocker) to control my heart rate and Xarelto. He also put me on Losarten for blood pressure. Physically, I'm taking care of myself and started going back to the gym. It hasn't been easy, but the biggest hurdle has been my mental and emotional health, which was really rocked by the episode. I started seeing a therapist for the anxiety and I also joined a support group on FaceBook called Afib Releif, which is run by a doctor who also has a history of afib. These two things really helped me. It took about four and a half weeks for the anxiety to calm and for me to start feeling hopeful again. Be careful about what you look up online because there is a lot of negative information about AF and much of it probably doesn't even apply to you. There are a lot of people who suffer from AF and live full lives in that group as well and they are the ones to listen to. You should also look up York Cardiology on CZcams. There are some really great videos. I reached to everyone i know and found at about 10 people that I know, or are connected to someone I know have different variations of AF. I was shocked. It seems to be an epidemic! If you want to email me, you can find me on FaceBook. At this point, I feel like I appreciate my life more than I have in a while but it took me a while and some therapy to get here. I watch my self-talk and don't allow myself to wonder if it's going to "happen now." Having faith helps me a lot.
Gloria Mary Haywood I would like to communicate. I also converted to NSR on my own after just a few hours. I’ve been reading about Vagal AF. My one episode happened as I drank a frozen smoothie. It felt like a spasm at first. Are there any support groups you recommend? I’ve looked for them and found a couple in which people seemed negative. I need positive people who understand what I’m going through.

No reason to live in fear. Many people with Afib live long, active, and full lives!💜😉
My husband had bad sleep apnea for years but we never considered treatment as I did not hear him stop breathing. He quit smoking and excess coffee after retiring from the navy. (Stopped smoking in 1985 after 17 yr). We exercise, etc but he is the beef and fries eater. He also eats all veggies. He began occasional Afib in 2019. Slammed with Covid in Mar 2021. He hadcovid pneumonia. He has VA disability so all treatment at the VA. Had to be out on heart meds, blood thinners and a pacemaker. They aren’t sure Covid aggravated it all. His CPap is working pretty good so far. He wears a monitor every so often for keeping track. They say he has 40 or so Afib occurances a day. He feels nothing. The tests and stress test, photos, etc showed no blockages or heart problems. Weird. We both take excellent supplements and antioxidants, etc. Vit D3 and magnesium, calcium citrate. Not large amounts.
I am experiencing the same thing - I have a pacemaker because of bradycardia - got it installed in 2012. No real problems - in shape, eat decent, and if they hadn’t said anything about Afib - I wouldn’t have even known I had it. The pacemaker thing surprised the dickens out of everyone - because you would never think I would be a candidate. I got put on Xarelto yesterday and of course scheduled for a sleep apnea test next month. Very upsetting.
@@QuantumOfSolace1 How did your sleep apnea test go? did you do anything after their diagnosis on your sleep issue that could affect Afib? Hope all the best.

Say buddy before you get burned try a life style change. Like start eating real food and exercising more. Ablation does not last for ever. In other words you will be entering your seventies with a burned heart, and if you don’t take steps to change your health habits, you will still have AF. You will be worse off!
Did you receive an ablation? I just had a PMaker and 2 wks later an ablation and I feel great..... no issues for 2 months now!
I eat healthy, walk at least 3-4 miles a day and drink plenty of water.
I have had two ablations and five cardioversions and my AFib is still with me. I take Eliquis and get by. I am also working on weight loss and exercise routine. I really believe there is no universal solutions to AFib. My recommendation is to find the best cardiologist with electrophysiology as a speciality. I have two of them and they have kept me going into my 70’s and I hope beyond.

How heartbreaking that my husband died from taking amiodarone (for a-fib) as he developed pulmonary fibrosis. So people, try to have a second opinion if taking it or watch out for such medication-it's fatal!
I am so sorry for your loss. A cardiologist was really pushing for me to take this med. when I was first diagnosed with Afib. I got the prescription filled, but when I read the info sheet that came with the pills, it said that one of the potential "side effects" is death! I told her that I wasn't ready for that side effect. She said that typically is a problem only after being on the med. for several years. If I may ask, how long had your husband been taking it?
Only for several months and he complained but his cardiologist insisted. It goes to show that we have to be our own advocate.
@@Smughyorita So sorry to hear your loss. How old was your husband when taking Amiodarone? and was the daily dosage 400mg? Hope for the best.
@@jack-lo7vd He was in his senior years, so that medication is quite deadly to the elderly-even at 200mg. Yes, at 200mg dosage my husband developed severe and permanent lung damage. Perhaps those who are younger have better tolerance.
I'm sorry... we did a deep dive on that when the doctor gave it to us. It is a last ditch effort medication and the study results were terrible. The doctor didn't tell us that though
I have a ICD with pace maker, doing fine for over 5 yrs. Now on eliquis.
This Cardiologist states that Atrial fibrillation (Afib) is a heart condition. What is wrong with that? Stating that atrial fibrillation (Afib) is a heart problem, specifically when referring to a person with an otherwise healthy heart, is like stating that Parkinson’s disease is a hand problem. That’s clearly wrong. Would Parkinson’s specialists be Orthopedic hand surgeons? No. Would Parkinson’s specialists operate on the patient’s hands to stop them trembling? No. That’s the problem with healthy heart Afib treatment and research by Cardiologists. Healthy heart Afib is actually a problem of the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS), not the heart. Signaling from the autonomic nervous system to the heart is where the problem lies. Just like Parkinson's does not originate in the hands, for instance, healthy heart afib does not originate in the heart. Therefore, Afib specialty belongs with ANS specialists. Until the problem is focused upon by the right specialists and researchers, new treatments for the problem will still focus on tinkering with the heart. Catheter ablation and pacemaker insertion damage the heart. That’s barbaric, misconceived, usually not very effective according to research, and can seriously shorten the lifespan of the patient. That makes zero sense. Moreover, in the for-profit medical system in the United States, being branded with a heart problem is to render a person uninsurable or highly expensive to insure. Doctors and medical billing and coders brand you with heart disease if you have Afib. That’s tantamount to an injustice. Nervous system specialists are starting to focus on Afib as originating in the hypothalamus in the brain, part of the command center for the ANS. Because we are starting to discover the complexity of communication between the heart, organs and brain, especially by way of the vagus nerve, locating the origin of the afib may be very complex.

Hi everything you just said is what I most told my cardiologist about my afib they say that my heart is healthy but ask me if I wanted too do the ablation I said no that afib is not a heart problem is the nervous system that comes from the spine.. I just want too know how too fix afib
What you say makes a lot of sense, thank you for the information.
Thank you, this is one of the most interesting and enlightened responses I have seen on YT. I have "Lone" Afib meaning there is no apparent cause. The heart itself is healthy, so it's a signaling issue. They just refer to it as "sick sinus syndrome" but that doesn't really address the ANS component. I have wondered what role the Vagus nerve plays in all this.
If that is the case, would "Noninvasive Vagus Nerve Stimulation" device such as gammaCore be benefitial?
It's a heart condition...obviously my heart does not function well although it looks normal in size, etc. No, I don't have CAD but I wish I had that and not a-fib because one can do something about CAD with a strict diet and meds but nothing can be done about a-fib. I do everything right: no smoking, no drinking, no caffeine, no drugs, no salt, no sugar, no fats....I am a vegan....still, no matter what I do I still have the horrible episodes.
I was diagnosed in August 2018. They believe it's due to sleep apnea because the two episodes I experienced happened while I was sleep which wakes me up from my sleep. Super scary. Now I'm on eliquis 5mg, Profenone, Diltiazem 360mg, and Losartin. I'm trying to get off of these medications by losing weight with the gastric sleeve surgery this summer. I'm too young for this AFIB business.
I know exactly what you mean
I get chest flutters. I'm praying that it's not A fib. I pray you are doing well now
Darlene Lewis how are you?
@@latonyarandle2651 I'm well. How about yourself?
Eloquis is deadly! Causing bleeding from ALL Orfices. Profenone caused my hair to fall out, Losartan caused gasping and exhaustion, with shortness of breath!!
Please wean yourself off these chemicals if at ALL possible. You will feel much better after a week or two. Only on Metoprolol 12.5mg now every morning, with multivitamin and a Probiotic. PLENTY of water intake with daily walking. Feeling the BEST in a long time at 65, and Cardiologist is amazed!❤️
awesome presentation! Dr. I need your help my son is experiencing a lot of the symptoms that you speak of, and he has even had surgery but the problem still exists. WE NEED YOU!
I was recently diagnosed for Afib , bout 2 weeks ago. My left upper atrial chamber is only pumping at 20-25% pressure.
Great info; thanks ever so much.
Just two months ago I was a very healthy 64 year old woman except for a broken foot. Without me knowing, blood clots formed in my right leg. Long story short I just survived a massive saddle pe when a large clot hit my lung. After eight days in hospital, I came home with heart failure, high blood pressure and Afib. My cardiologist hasnt told me anything about what to expect with Afib. I have been reading articles about it but I've discovered that I learn more from everyones comments. If anyone has some helpful information I could use it. I guess doctors assume we just automatically know what to do or they are too busy to take the time to explain. Any help would be appreciated.
Hello Rhonda, hope you are feeling well. Sorry you have been dealing with health problems. I am 71years old, have persistent a/fib since last October 2021. The breathlessness/fatigue/ were all working on my system for months, before I persuaded my gp to have ecg done. I have had cardioversion Jan 19th this year. It says 'successful ' on the report. It has not been the miracle I was hoping for, but I do feel a bit better. I will have a review with cardiologist, but when??I am really in a limbo-type situation, nervous, sensing fluttering heart beat and rhythm, high and low blood pressure. Constant rushing/hissing/air escaping sounds on the right side /inside my head. Feels like a lot of pressure. Impossible to get access to a gp. Am determined to keep going. Here's to better days ahead.
I’ve had Afib for around 7 years feel free to contact me
How about if my cardiologist respond to my question is, “your old what do you expect?” My question was why is my skin with so much blood spot, red blot. The red blots are in my arms and legs. Eliquis is my blood thinner! She said no do not reduce the amt. I did I decrease by 25%. Red blots gone and no afibs attack. Sometimes one got to do some common sense.
I have atrial fibrillation.It can be debilitating with some episodes.These lectures are very useful to understand whats going on.A busy cardiologist can't give you all this time to explain
I got mine fixed with Chiro treatment and yogic breathing...
I know breathing certain ways can help at times but I don't know it there 99% of the time but it's there every time a Dr puts a stethoscope to me. Doesn't keep me from doing most activities just maybe tire more quickly
I was told I had AF but I do not have the symptoms that you talk about, I have shortsge of breath and cannot walk far or do any work without loosing my breath, it's very tiresome, who is right,
Give the guy a bottle of water. Very informative lecture.
I suffer from Afib - well, to be correct, I found out taking Semaglutide 0,5mg once / week (I do not suffer from diabetes) eliminates at least 95% of my Afib attacks. Before I started taking Semaglutide, a cup of coffee very often (daily) triggered Afib to run for 10-20 hours. I never had electrochock to return into sinus mode. I am well aware that Semaglutide isn't indicative for the problem but it works better than anything else (Betablocker etc.). I take bloodthinners (Apixaban) to prevent bloodcloths.
Always had blood pooling in the the feet. Used to have gout?
Is it required to take 2 tablets of Eliquis, 5 mg each, a day? Why? I change mine to 1.5 tablets a day., as my skin is full of red blots.. with 1.5 tablets, no more red blots in my arms and legs.
I had blood clots in both legs. Had surgery in both legs. Pulse seems to be good in both legs. How can I help the inflammation in my legs. I take Coumadin.
Qqq
I have had 2 strokes in 2 years without too much permanent damage...my eyes were finished somewhat and memory affected. Now on placix, astrostatin, and baby aspirin. Doing loop recorder checking for AFib. Not overweight, blood work good, walk 2 miles daily and try to eat healthy. Doc has no idea if this test comes back no afib. It's a big question. Not looking forward to this loop recorder. Wire a heart monitor for one month on first stroke. Showed nothing.
Sounds scary.
I had a regiment of drugs which failed and a cardioversion which brought it to normal rhythm but an EKG a week later I was back in afib , what can I do now ????
Hello. My afib caused me to have a stroke. Blood clot in the brain even using elequis blood thinner medication. I feel my afib happening almost daily. Thanks
Need advice about living with afib
Are you eating a diet rich in potassium and magnesium? that could help. Are you avoiding all the irritants?
@@michellen2325 what are the irritants?
Even with Eliquis you can still get blood clots. No medicine is perfect unfortunately. I'm on Eliquis too. It's always on my mind.
Eliquis has plenty of side effects
Doctor said sleep apnea or not sleeping well could cause Afib. Does anyone have any tips to not wake up a few times in middle of sleep, and then take 1-3 hours to fall back to sleep?
A Sever poison ivy case can also cause afib as well as predisone to treat it...........................
Very helpful.
I've had AFib for three years. I'm 73 years old and disabled. My heart specialist did a cryo ablation a month ago. I'm still recovering. I am a retired cardiac nurse and I know when I am in AFib. I feel weak, dizzy and do not function well. Recently had to be cardioverted. Was in a sinus rhythm for two days and now am back in AFib. Don't know what my doctor will do now.
You don’t have heart palpitations or flutters with Afib? I get weak & a little dizzy at times but didn’t associate it with an Afib episode.
I'm on 2 heart pills, and it hasn't made any difference to My shortage of breath.
Me thinketh BigPharma making., customers from the cradle to......the grave!@!?😝😜😅😎
P.S. Great to hear this doctor also talking about......prevention!!!😉
And more deep breathing I do. The fast it correct. The heart needs oxygen..
What do you think about that.
What about low hormones as we age
Maybe you should do a Cpap. Get sleep study.
Dr Very nice awareness creation on heart related issues . I have been taking Magnesium which relaxes muscles . Do you recommend Magnesium . Dr Denis Goodman is practicing Magnesium therapy
Would a pacemaker help?
Followup? , my kaiser doctor sees me only when I call for appt, last time after about a year and a half.
Just an amazing, informative presentation.. Congratulations. May I suggest that you simply substitute a pause to replace "ahs" , "you know", and others. A pause is okay for the listener. Clearly more acceptable and less distracting. However, the presentation was well organized and presented and informative..
That's a little harsh on the presenter who did great job. I guess it will be hard not to have any pause and still seem natural, in such long presentation session.
Hey doc... if sleep cause it.. wouldn't that be low oxygen level..
I wake up in afib. Start deep breathing and it corrects..
But when it trigger when I'm awake doing somthing.. it take 10 20 correct. I can go IV bar get high dose of mag. Etc. It correct in within 2 hours.
Try balancing your sodium, potassium, and magnesium through diet. Next time, you may not make it to the hospital.

Is acerola vitamin c better than ascorbic acid vitamin c?
Nice presentation up to the point of Eat Right. This info is just not helpful. Sugar/refined carb are the enemy of weight loss, fats can help, electrolytes such as potassium and magnesium help big time. A little alcohol may be too much and coffee is not the devil it can help get you moving.
Caffeine and alcohol??? Absolutely not!!!!!!!!!!!
@@michellen2325 I drink lots of coffee per day. While it may trigger AFib for some it does not seem to affect me. Still drink the same amount of coffee each day and have not had an AFib episode in over a year now!? I believe my AFib has got to do with the vagus nerve connection.

Pretty good job, but would like to have seen pictures too....and what about SUGAR and so many soft drinks people are drinking and kids the most ....I don't see why Parents would let kids have sodas at such an early age anyways, and even limit their consumption at home, just don't buy it.....you drink something like that in front of kids of course they will want it, and you say no ....then they will start drinking it as soon as they can, even sneak around and drink it.... don't start it with them and they won't be wanting to drink it with every meal....water is the best thing you can give your kids.....we all should drink more water.....who needs all that sugar....last I heard was 13 tsp. sugar to a can of soda !!! may even be more.....maybe just have it on special occasions..... and just look at the money you will be saving.....save it for a vacation.....
Had a tripple bypass +2 and am not on any meds, and recently one er doc has said to me that I. Have afib...but cardiologist no tx it.also have blockages behind left knee and
L ankle, leg cramps more recently. Am looking for TX may try Texas..txt me..please
I have the procedure that they're talkin about everything I've had an hour to 34 years I've never had an I've never had enough and I have one little episode in that whole time in about 4 years and under control I'm taking the right drugs are so I learned a little bit more exactly what they said in the guy was talking about very interesting very educational so I know I'm doing some right and I know more what's going on in my life I want to go another 30 years if I can do it I don't know if I can do it I'm getting pretty old now but it it's a condition like anyting else and I had that procedure done we go in the hospital that night to leave the next day I've never had an episode after that thank God they were science today that's all I got to say
Thanks for the Info. I am 31year old male, work out daily, healthy individual who recently had a cardioversion after heart rate was as high as 165. No family history no drug use etc. Drs could not and still do not know what caused it. All tests showed nothing conclusive, but yet even after I still fell like something is wrong off. Random palpitations and sporadic heart rate.. any advice would be greatly appreciated .. Thanks
Just4fun -Family meeeee tooooo, I’m 31 female..
Get your vitamin D levels really high.Ditto B12. And use transdermal and liposomal magnesium. Also high dose C and D-ribose/COQ10 and lipoic acid. Try the Heart Math programme.
Could it be the post covid syndrome ??
If you had covid is almost normal to have this condition for a while ...it should go away ...
Stress is a big factor in this too. I believe stress was a big factor in my Afib.
I have tachycardia caused by certain food additives. BHA, BHT, TBHQ, aspartame, paramycin in cheese, msg, and something in bacon, not sure which one, are the specific additives I have been able to pin down. As long as I'm very careful about what I eat, I don't have any problems.
Whats sinus arrhythmia?
A person's heart rate relates to their breathing cycle. In other words, when the person breathes in, their heart rate increases, and when they breathe out, the rate decreases.
my husband was in hospital for week and half latlely and when asking the doctor why he got it he said its part of getting old my husband is 81 was first time he had this and was on no chemical meds for the past five years , i was a nurse in my younger days and looking at his blood tests of the past few years it dawned on me i am sure he got this because of his electrolytes not all on top level but that was dismissed by the specialist he said its got nothing todo with what he had what was upsetting is that first thing they prescribed was a statin drug what ever for ? his cholesterol is perfect i gave up on trying to figure out the way some people work it out, your electrolytes combo are made up of Calcium, Magnesium , Potassium ,sodium and chlorides on the test his potassium and sodium was very low ,, I think also people should know if you drink pure water it washes out your sodium thats why so many young ones die after competitions where they do sports or something then drink a liter or two water and drop dead , put a teaspoon of lemon in your water and the water splits in chloride and sodium and you will not have that problem ever
@Heidi Fouche My electrolytes mineral levels were all normal in blood test, but it did not prevent a Afib that kept heart rate at 150 bpm for almost whole day before going to ER to get it fixed.
What is the doctors web site??
Heart health docs
Try getting nailed by lightning.
I wasn't trying and got nailed in 75 and AFIB and short term blindness resulted. Nothing they can do for me. They tried everything.
EKG or ECG? If it's electro-cardio-gram, then it's ECG. What does EKG stand for and is it different from an ECG? They shouldn't be so confusing when attempting to educate people.
They are the SAME Virginia. They both stand for Electrocardiogram!
I guess electrocardiogram is pronounced with a hard C. But you worked it out so not too confusing then.

I've had ablation and it has not worked. I'm looking at another CZcams video which is interesting by DR JOHN BERGMAN-CARDIAC ARRHYTHMIA'S-THE MISSING LINK
I am planning to have an ablation. I’m sorry it has not worked for you I’m not sure how successful mine would be, but my doctor said it’s the only chance since I have a low blood pressure and cannot take Betta-blockers
Me too , it didn't work, beta blockers don't work , it's so stressful, I have daily episodes 3 and four times a day even on beta blockers, doctors warn you about certain triggers but I say BS because I dont use , alcohol, prescription drugs, marijuana, sugared foods , caffeine blah blah blah , and i still have major episodes, in fact 90 % of mine wake me up from a sleep, so I guess sleep is my trigger , these trigger items mean nothing to me, why is sleeping a damn trigger
@@awakeningblacksheep9610 I don't know but I totally believe that these things should be treated holistically. Burning heart muscle to 'fix' this doesn't make sense
@@ryanborder189 Do you know any holistic physicians who treat Afib? Afib is a major money maker for Big Pharma. What is the underlying cause of Afib? Drugs just treat the symptoms - the usual approach of the Western medical mafia. No large-scale studies will ever be conducted using natural substances or vitamins which Big Pharma hates with a passion.
@@anneburich3913 No Anne I don't but I'm currently on a Keto diet(i'm not 'fat' , I just wanted to lose 20lbs) which would bring me to my lowest weight since I was 20. I'm relatively fit but I have become convinced that the key to good health generally is controlling insulin levels in the blood and I'm convinced that this also plays a part in Afib. I have been taking for a few years supplements and lots of people have defiecencies in the body(magnesium, potassium, zinc) so i take all of the above plus there is lots of evidence that gut health is key to your heart health too so take a pro biotic but not those drinks that have tons of sugar in them. I'm also pretty much tee total now but I will have a drink if I want one...I just don't usually want one and I had already given up smoking over a decade ago and recreational drugs. I know for me that stress is also a trigger so I try not to let myself get wound up. But the great thing Anne is the internet is a great resource so start looking on there and on CZcams. One of the things I have learned is not to allow it to scare me and even when I'm at the gym and have an attack I just wait for it to pass and then carry on. I do know a great homeopathy pharmacy in London where they also do consultations. I haven't personally had one but they have a great reputation and I know them all personally and know that they are all committed to it and genuine and good people. Hope this helps a little-keep positive!
METROPOLOL ALMOST KILLED MY HEART BEWARE OF THE EFFECTS OF THIS DRUG
Hi, I have been on Metropolol for about 4 yrs now. Please don't frighten ppl about the medicine. All meds aren't for everyone. I have been on prozac since diagnosed with Cronic Fatigue Syndrome. I have done great with it, but I have talked to a couple of ppl and they had problems. One put a fist thru the wall. Yet, others it is an answer.
Hi again, I was on a low dose BP med.After about a yr i began to have reaction. My throat began to close. My dr said, if I would have taken it for a couple more days, I could have died. Medicine is needed to keep us alive. There is always the need to notice when something is off.
I wonder if arthritis in the neck would cause AFib as it aggravates the vagus nerve 🤔
Any stress will agrivate afib.
If you drink a few beers on this drug eat food while drinking
You don´t have to live with it. I can fix it,energetically, very quickly by finding and eliminating the cause. I have done this dozens of times.
How
The body is electric - a "spark" fires your heart. There is a very small voltage across the cell membrane. The body's regulation of this v determines the permeability of it and thus the allowed entry of various nutrients and minerals from the extracellular fluid and into the cell. EMF radiation and electric fields negatively affect this v and cause more substances than normal to be allowed entry. Calcium is the most important one as too much of it makes the heart race and palpitate - hence the need for Calcium Channel Blockers.
Wifi, cell towers and specially five gg are very potent Emf radiation emitters and completely - and proven - capable of filling the bill. That is why there is an increase in Afib. There! now you know (as if it was unknown) what the problem is and you can fix it in you next video...but I aint holding my breath as that would be worse than afib
“They” wanted me to take medication that costs 600 per month. I just bought a book on reincarnation……
Gary, lol!
😂 I'm with ya fren.
Untreated afib will get worse. It leads to HF. Do what you need to do to stop the Afib. Do not think to just “live with it”
talk about reversal lose the weight
Unfortunately the medical doctors treat symptoms rather than fixing the cause. In most cases afib is attributed to a musculoskeletal abnormality in the thoracic area of spine.....thats where a chiropractor comes in to help
Is that true
First I've heard that. Did not know a chiropractor could treat something like this.
