I don't like being drugged up or cut up in my quest to find relief or even a cure for AFIB. Rather, I search for Non Invasive methods to deal with this problem. Several months ago, I came across a company in Israel named "CardiaCare" who have created an interesting device which : 1. Wraps around your wrist like a wristwatch... 2. Monitors your heart on a continuous basis for problems like AFIB and other arrythmias. 3. Claims that through stimulation of the Vagus Nerve via the wrist, it can reduce PAC (premature atrial contractions) which are a precursor to AFIB attacks and can decrease those attacks. It is not currently available in the U.S. as it has not been approved by the F.D.A. yet. I have no idea if this is a good product or not, but if you want to read more about it here's the link-[my-cardiacare.com] https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,192177,192177#msg-192177 Wed, 26 Aug 2026 13:02:28 +0000 Phorum 5.2.23 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,192177,192258#msg-192258 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,192177,192258#msg-192258
The reason I did not use it was- According to the study I copied from U. of Oklahoma Medical their unit was not affective in stopping or cutting short an Afib attack. Instead, it reduced the total number of attacks by 85% after 6 months of use ( comparing those who used the real device vs. those who used the sham device).]]> ama1952 AFIBBERS FORUM Fri, 01 Sep 2023 17:30:46 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,192177,192239#msg-192239 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,192177,192239#msg-192239 alfrae13 AFIBBERS FORUM Wed, 30 Aug 2023 15:55:48 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,192177,192177#msg-192177 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,192177,192177#msg-192177 Rather, I search for Non Invasive methods to deal with this problem.
