September is Atrial Fibrillation Awareness Month

Many people are unaware that atrial fibrillation (AFib) is an irregular rapid heartbeat that can lead to dementia, heart failure, stroke, or even death.  Someone with AFib needs to be evaluated for their stroke risk. You can have AFib and have so symptoms, and that is why it is always good to have a yearly checkup with your doctor where they can listen to your heart.
