I have had Paroxysmal Afib for 3 years now and am running out of options other than an operation. I read a medical study that claimed patients with paroxysmal and persistent afib reduced the amount of afib incidents and also the duration a substantial amount
 by applying acupuncture to three areas of the body once a week for 10 weeks. These results were long-lasting. 
There has been no duplicate study and this one was small in number, but I felt it was worth trying.

 I located an acupuncturist who was willing to replicate the treatment used in the study. I was very surprised at how 
little pain there was involved and decided to make this video to let people know who might have been thinking about
 acupuncture to not be afraid of trying it due to any fear of needles or pain.

 I will let you know if the treatments turn out to be a remedy for reducing my afib in the near future.
 I have also begun to take hawthorn berry syrup for my palpitations and Apple cider Vinegar at night to help me sleep better 
. I have also had a sleep study and was found to have moderate sleep apnea and am expecting to be using a CPAP machine son. 
If none of this works I will have an ablation assuming I still have insurance in my state to pay for it.

 To see the Hawthorn berry syrup or Apple Cider Vinegar I am trying to go to my Amazon store. 
If you save and bookmark the link to that store and use it to go to Amazon in the future and buy anything at all on Amazon 
then they will give me a few pennies which help a lot at no cost to you.
