hi i have had a-fib for at least 10yrs.at first it was pretty scarey
but we learn to try different things to help ourselfs. a couple of
ye ars ago i had a tia so i knew i better get better control of
myself.i have been on betapace quite a few yrs.increasing dosage
untill i am recieving the maximum.even with the max. i was still
getting attacks but not as severe on almost a weekly basis.these
attacks happened at the early morning hrs associated with nightmares
or dreams of being someplace wher it would make the heart race and
then go into a-fib.i believe i was not getting enough oxegyn after a
few hrs sleep even with the airconditioner on.i started taking my
dentures out before going to bed and the nightmares stopped and thea-
fib stopped for 4months untill one night i forgot and i had a-fib
again.i hope this helps someone tomo
