[READ] …Gary’s Story: How Early Detection of AFib Changed His Life. It’s important to know that Gary had no clue he was having any symptoms related to AFib. His provider was discussing how important losing some weight could be to better managing his diabetes. He assumed his general fatigue was due to him getting older and being a few pounds overweight. “When my primary care provider told me she had “good news” and that I was “lucky”, I didn’t expect what came next: “I’m referring you to a cardiologist and endocrinologist. You had 12 episodes of atrial fibrillation.” At first, I was baffled. How could that be lucky? And 12 episodes of AFib? There must have been some mistake—they probably mixed up my records with someone else’s. I would have known if my heart was beating irregularly, right? Gary is a diabetic, and like many people with diabetes, he was unable to notice symptoms like a rapid heartbeat or palpitations. Fortunately, his AFib was detected early enough. Thanks to some lifestyle changes and a blood thinner, his heart is now AFib-free after just 6 months. Not only has his risk of stroke, heart failure, sudden cardiac arrest, and even dementia been dramatically reduced, but his overall quality of life has improved as well. Early detection made all the difference. It’s great to know that with the right care, you can manage conditions like AFib and avoid the serious risks that come with them. “If you’re diabetic or have any risk factors for AFib, I encourage you to speak with your doctor about screening. It’s a simple step that could change your life for the better, Gary” Call or text to schedule a free consultation now. 801-816-1010
