[QUOTE="Dee-Cee, post: 2489600, member: 550843"] Thank you [USER=155453]@catinahat[/USER] for your reply and welcome. Since my diagnosis at the beginning of January, I have been left to do my own research and learning about the condition, until a 30 minute phone call with the diabetes nurse last week. I had initially, after my research, thought that the low carb route would be my best option but, having had numerous bad reactions to medication since my AF diagnosis almost 6 years ago, I decided to check whether low carb would be suitable. I found a few mentions of the possibility of a link and, since talking to a GP is almost impossible, put it in the ‘too hard to cope with’ box. Your comments have made me feel more positive about the low carb diet and I will be insisting that I talk to a GP this week. I have not seen a cardiologist since moving back to the UK over 3 years ago and, until last week, had had no AF episodes for around 8 months. I had various tests after the worst run of episodes last summer and, because they were all good results, the cardiologist decided that I did not need to be seen… I gave up Jaffa cakes with my diabetes diagnosis, they were my go to stress reliever :) [/QUOTE]
