Atrial fibrillation is the heart condition created when the electrical signals which coordinate the contractions of the twinned-chambers of the heart starts to malfunction. Very often, atrial fibrillation goes unnoticed and does not present any symptoms for the patient or doctor to recognize and diagnose the condition but atrial fibrillation can be extremely serious as well as life-threatening.
To understand atrial fibrillation we must first understand how the heart functions. Picture two sets of chambers stacked one on top of the other – the upper pair of chambers, known as atria (or atrium if singular) are larger and each feeds into a lower chamber below known as a ventricle which are smaller. The atrium’s job is to collect the blood together as it enters the heart and then to contract which forces the blood into the ventricle; the smaller ventricle must then contract to pump the blood around the body. This results in the double-beat sound which is the heart’s signature and this is known as the Sinus Rhythm.
It is important that this is coordinated carefully so that the atrium does not push blood into the ventricle when the ventricle is not ready or actually contracts on cue properly to get the blood into the ventricle. If it fails to contract or do so on schedule, then the ventricle will not have blood to pass around the body. An electrical signal is generated which tells the atrium when to contract and this is created by the heart’s natural pacemaker known as the Sinoatrial Node (SA Node) and as the signal crosses the atrium, it causes it to contract when required. » Continue reading Dealing With Atrial Fibrillation »

Lupus is a disease that forces the immune system to attack healthy tissue. It affects about 1.5 million Americans. Ninety percent of these Americans are women. Lupus is a very difficult disease to diagnose because each lupus patient can display different symptoms. The number of symptoms can also vary between patients. There are 4 different categories of lupus.
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) constitute about 70 percent of the cases of lupus. About 15 percent of the people who have SLE exhibit symptoms during their teen years. This is the most dangerous form of lupus. In this form of lupus, the immune system attacks any system or organ in the body including the joints, skin, lungs, heart, blood, blood vessels, kidney, heart, liver, brain, tendons, pancreas, or nervous system. People between the ages of 15 and 44 are the most likely to develop SLE. The symptoms for SLE can range from being harmless to life threatening. Over 50 percent of all systemic lupus patients in the United States have some degree of brain inflammation. Between 3 and 20 percent suffer strokes. Some of the other more common symptoms are kidney damage, chronic fatigue and painful or swollen joints. Many people with SLE find that the ultraviolet rays from the sun or fluorescent lights make their condition worse. Other symptoms may include an unexplained fever, muscle aches, loss of appetite, hair loss, a butterfly-shaped rash across the nose and cheeks (malar), sores in the nose or mouth, serositis, seizures and a lower than normal number of red blood cells (anemia), white blood cells, or platelets.
