Well, mom went to ER today cause of afib issues. After 1 hour they admitted her. Before this they did x ray, ekg and blood samples. She’s very healthy for being almost 74. I’m praying and hoping for best.
Sorry to hear about your Mom.
The good news is that there are many good meds today for treating afib. There are also minimally evasive techniques that can be used as well. I think that you are probably already doing this, but try to help be your Mom's health advocate.
In today's complicated medical services world, it pays to be your own advocate and become as educated as you can regarding any health or medical condition one faces and the options for treatment, and possible cure.
help shortage? Medical is all messed up right now still not sure why we have a for profit medical system.So, day 2 in hospital. Mom feels better, still has not saw cardiologist and she’s jacked. Hospital doctor has now twice requested a cardiologist.

Jeez Stude, I missed the original thread. I'm so glad your mom is OK and you're spending the week with her.So, talked to mom. Gave her med to raise her blood psi. Going to shock her tomorrow or ablation is correct term; monitor her and hopefully she goes home tomorrow late afternoon. I’m planning to go out and spend remainder of week with her and stepdad and brother and nephews. We only have one mom and dad folks, cherish them
