I've been really concerned about my atrial fibrillation lately and was wondering if there's any actual cure for it. Also, do you think practices like yoga or acupuncture could be effective in managing it? I'm curious about whether there are any food or lifestyle changes that might help too.

Atrial fibrillation can be managed with medications and other interventions, but it may not have a definitive cure. Medications such as Flecainide or Dronedarone can help control heart rhythm. Additionally, lifestyle changes such as reducing alcohol and caffeine intake, managing stress, and maintaining a healthy diet can also help. While yoga and acupuncture may help with overall well-being and stress management, they may not directly cure atrial fibrillation. It is important to consult with a healthcare provider for a personalized treatment plan.

I'm a bit concerned about my recent ECG results. It mentioned something like 800 sinus rhythm, and I'm not really sure what that means. Also, my blood pressure showed up as 13084. Is this considered normal?
800 sinus rhythm means that the heart is beating at a normal rate and rhythm, typically between 60-100 beats per minute. A heart rate of 800 would be abnormally high and would be a cause for concern. As for the ECG being normal, without seeing the actual ECG tracing, I cannot provide a definitive answer. However, sinus rhythm is considered normal on an ECG. Regarding your blood pressure of 13084, this is considered prehypertension. If you have no other medical conditions and are not experiencing any symptoms, it may not require immediate treatment. However, it is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and make lifestyle changes such as a healthy diet, regular exercise, and stress management. If you are experiencing any symptoms or have concerns about your ECG or blood pressure, it is best to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
