Living with Atrial Fibrillation (AFib)

Atrial fibrillation (AFib) is one of the most common types of arrhythmias—or irregular heartbeats—and causes the heart to have an irregular rhythm and often beat rapidly. AFib can be physically exhausting, scary, and disabling and raises the risk of heart failure, dementia, and stroke. But with proper treatment, these risks can be significantly decreased and people with AFib can live healthy and active lives.
