Personal comments | I AM A REAL OPTIMIST AND AM SURE THAT A CURE FOR THE AF IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME AWAY.
THEY SEEM TO BE WORKING AT IT AND WE MUST WORK TOWARDS MUCH
BETTER DAYS AHEAD.
I USED TO GET VERY WORRIED WHEN I TRIPPED OUT BUT I AM LEARNING THAT ALTHOUGH VERY UNPLEASANT IT IS NOT REALLY DANGEROUS. HANG IN THERE FELLOW AF SUFFERERS. |
