Thanks for posting this. My husband had atrial fibrillation and they had to do emergency heart bypass. He is on a whole slew of meds, and I guess he'll have to stay on them for the rest of his life.

Maybe not. The greatest miracle workers in the world are diet and exercise. But they seem to be our last resort in this age.

I had a severe MI (LAD) at age 47, sextuple bypass surgery at age 54, and have paroxysmal afib controlled by Sotalol. I am now 80, still in good health. I take a whole slew of medicines daily including statins and warfarin. I don't think anything about it; it's just one of those things you do to keep living.

Had a coronary arteriogram late last year. The bypasses are still working great after 25 years. Isn't life grand?
