Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
Atrial Fibrillation is the most common cardiac rhythm problem. It often causes dizziness and shortness of breath and tiredness, sometimes leading to passing out. The heartbeat can become irregular, with noticeable palpitations which can be uncomfortable and disconcerting.
I know about this because I have it.
When I was diagnosed several years ago, it was a shock. I found AF Association, and through their community and stories of others affected I was able to manage my concerns.
AF Association doesn't just help the people affected in this way. They also work closely with medical professionals and the NHS, and others in the medical community to help in detecting, diagnosing and managing atrial fibrillation.
Atrial Fibrillation does affect my fitness, but it doesn't stop me - this will be my second Tough Mudder, and I want to help AF Association to raise awareness and help others that are in the same place I was when diagnosed. Any donations you can make will be gratefully received!
