| Personal comments | I was diagnosed at 24 years old and immediately quit smoking cigarettes. I still have no reason why or how I got A Fib, let alone why I have it so bad. I literally have had heart palpitations every 30 seconds that last about 1 minute or two for over a year now. I think for me, it's more of an annoyance than anything. And it's very hard to not be able to control my body and not know how to stop it or how to prevent the palpitations. |
