Heart treatment is improving all the time. Hang in there with your dad, Loren.

May the Lord reach down and heal him. Amen.

They also found arterial fibrillation, which might be something new.

Is he taking ibuprofen? Ibuprofen caused fibrillation in me, so I quit taking it.

I don’t know, but it’s worth checking to.

[LadyDoc]

In my prayers.

In the elderly, you have to watch for medical side effects. There are several medicines to stop atrial fibrillation that may or may not prolong life so we don't use them a lot anymore.

The important medicine is using a blood thinner to prevent a stroke. (The atria don't pump so can get blood clots inside, which break off and can travel to the brain). So we thin the blood to prevent this, but bleed thinners are hard to gt the right dose, so this can cause bleeding.

And watch the driving... reflexes slow in the elderly.

[Old Grumpy]

Prayers sent. Hope you get to have your Dad around for many more years.
