Re: 2nd PTH yesterday...and now discovery of heart arrythmia

Hello Jessica

I'm truly sorry to hear you're going through this heart scare.

It is scary. Last year I found out I have minor heart valve disease (left mitral regurgitation) so I can guess a little bit about how you're feeling.

On the bright side, as our fellow posters have mentioned, atrial fibrilation is common. In fact, my sister has it and it is so mild it does not have to be treated.

Hope you have the type you mentioned that does not have to be treated.

On the other hand, if it does have to be treated, surely it is better to know now and get it sorted out.

Keeping everything crossed for you.
