Happy New Year to all my fellow heart rhythm buddies. I am afraid our heart issues may follow us into the new year, but we can hope for better management and fewer episodes. I am scheduled for ablation for afib in January and am hopeful that this bright shiny new year may be the first in 12 years that I may finally be rid of it, or at least not having it keep me from living my life. We need more awareness of this debilitating disease. More understanding of the toll it takes on our lives. To all of you, keep the faith! Wishing you normal sinus rhythm!
