This office of caregivers by far just awesome. What I had issue with today was the fact that none of my information seemed to be in the system my insurance information, etc., and I've been to WellStar for multiple multiple visits. I don't understand why all of a sudden the informationiwould be AWOL.

Wellstar Treats Atrial Fibrillation with Comprehensive, Tailored Care
Atrial fibrillation, also called AFib, occurs when the upper chambers of the heart—known as atria—beat irregularly and fail to pump blood efficiently to the rest of the body. It’s the most common heart arrhythmia, and at Wellstar, you’ll find comprehensive care and multiple treatment options for this condition.
What is AFib?
The heart in AFib often responds by beating too fast, with potentially dangerous results. A normal heart rate is between 60 and 100 beats per minute, but a heart in AFib beats 100 to 175 times per minute. Though the heart is working hard, it is inefficiently pumping blood through the body and may restrict oxygen delivery.
The poor pumping function may also leave blood to collect in the atria, where clots can form. If a clot is pumped through the heart and into the body, it could reach the brain and cause a stroke. The risk of experiencing a stroke is about four to five times higher if someone has AFib, according to the American Heart Association.
Symptoms of AFib include:
Rapid or irregular heartbeat or pulse
Skipped heartbeats
Chest palpitations
Lightheadedness or fainting
Confusion
Extreme fatigue
Shortness of breath
Chest pain
If you experience any of these symptoms, seek medical care right away.
How is AFib treated?
“If you are diagnosed with AFib, your Wellstar cardiologist will tailor your treatment plan, considering the condition of your heart and any other medical conditions you may have,” said Wellstar Cardiac Electrophysiologist Dr. Mohammad Kooshkabadi. “Their goals will be to reset your heart rhythm, prevent blood clots and reduce the risk of your AFib returning.”
Treatment options for AFib include:
Lifestyle changes
Medications, including blood thinners
Nonsurgical or catheter ablations
Implantable heart devices, such as a pacemaker
Surgical ablations (open heart surgery or minimally invasive surgery)
