Your dad is still alive and well?

I do hope you'll feel up to ringing them @Amberpearl. I have no doubt at all that they'll help you. Because they want to, as doctors do too. They've not trained for 7 years plus to cause us harm.
Good luck to your friend if she believes only in homeopathic care.
If I hadn't have had antibiotics in Dec to Feb for double pnuemonia I wouldn't be here now (sepsis). So I, personally, thank God, or whoever, for our medications and the expert care we can get.
Homeopathic treatment didn't help my mum recover from two different cancers either - conventional medicine did though like surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
I have no truck with people who try to persuade others of potentially unsafe treatment and interventions: no patience with them whatsoever. OK if they want to limit what they have for themselves, they can take their chance. But complete nonsense in my humble opinion (sorry, but not sorry - I don't tend to mince my words!).
Finally, beta blockers restored my BP and pulse (which was 145 per min in Dec). And I've seen it in my nursing career (including the huge work done in evidence-based trials to get drugs approved) with very many positive outcomes including much longer lives!
Do what's right for you @Amberpearl but I'd say please, just have an open mind and seek out the right people to advise you like cardiology, your nurses, the AF charity. Lots of warmest wishes to you and 🫂.

Roughyed, I'm sorry to read how bad you're feeling at the moment.
Please note I said at the moment. I hope you don't leave the forum, especially now.
I know what abandonment feels like and wanting to cut all ties. I doubt that's what anyone in your family wants you to do. Divorce is hard, I know that one too. Unless children are involved, it is very final. But family is different - you are still somebody's son, brother, uncle, cousin.
Sending a hug.

Hello, my day is going ok. I've been really anxious, but it's actually calmed down a bit now. I went to Art group and that helped. I got really focussed on my artwork and it gave me a bit of a break from thinking and worrying.
Popped into Lidl on the way home and got some cherry ice cream. :)

Glad you've had an okay day @pyjamaviking! Art is such a good thing to do to get a break from the difficult thoughts. Really helps to take your mind off things even just for a little while. The cherry ice cream sounds delicious too, enjoy!

Oh no, @Amberpearl. Is it worth contacting your GP to book an appointment as it seems to be really impacting you.

The blood thinners made me so ill
I can't take them
So I looked up alternatives with no. Side effects you can buy online
The nurse who prescribed them is on holiday for the next 2 weeks
