ton - as you know, I have a-fib too. Mine's just lone/paroxysmal now (with no known cause) and my heart's in otherwise good nick*.
I got myself OK with the idea of a-fib on the basis that I'd use up as much time now as I can to do all the things that worsened a-fib in a few years would stop.
I like to think of it as the "nursing home" test - when you're old and in the nursing home, you'll be glad you have some great tales of rugby and bikes to bore the other inmates with.
*Sadly, I also now have to have a test for a rare heart disorder that has only two symptoms: blacking out and/or sudden death. This has put my a-fib in context..!
Not the news I wanted to hear for you Tony, not the news at all.
I'm gutted for you, but I'm also confident that, knowing you and your character you will get up and get this tackled head on. The shock must be immense at the moment and you need to take a bit of time to get thing's in perspective.
We are all here for you mate... I don't mean that just on here... I mean in real life... anytime you fancy a run out, a chat or just a download you know where I am.
Thinking of you Big Fella... Thinking of you.
