A-Fib Patients’ Best Advice #10: Strive to be Your Own Healthcare Champion


‘Become your own
best patient advocate.’


John Thorton from Sioux Falls, SD, about ignoring the bad advice: “The local MDs, cardiologists, EPs, and other local specialists, all told me stuff like: “It is just anxiety,” and “You just need to learn to live with it”. Which was completely WRONG.

Michele Straub, Salt Lake City, Utah, encourages you to be more active in your own treatment plan: “Do not take ‘this is as good as it gets’ as an answer—do your own research about what’s possible. Take a co-leadership role with your doctor.”

Joan Schneider, Ann Arbor, MI: “I was so desperate for answers I started searching on-line. My jaw hit the table. [I said to myelf…] ‘How could my physicians not explain these things to me?’ Once I was able to really comprehend my future, I was able to make things happen.
