Is there a way to reverse atrial fibrillation?


If someone has a home remedy, I would welcome it. I have heard of soaking in a tub of Epsom's salts, etc.

I would avoid natural remedies in this case -- the cardio drugs are very touchy in terms of dosing (you will probably get blood tests if, for example, they use wafarin). And foxglove is lethal while digitalis is ok. The therapeutic range is fairly small. And the consequences of failure to treat (higher risk of stroke, etc.) are pretty significant.

The other way is cardio version (electric shock to your heart -- you will be sedated first).

Still, if you want the natural thing -- go to a naturopath. Do not rely on the internet or a health food store. This is serious and deserves the attention of someone with at least a ND. Personally, I would want a board certified cardiologist....

I don't know but you can search for information in
http://medlineplus.gov/
this is the site used by doctors with lots of works, investigations and other information about health.

I don't see anythign about a home remedy, the only treatments listed are: drugs used for rate control (digozin, beta-adrenergic blockers, calcium channel blockers), antiarrhythmic drugs (amiodaron, propafenone, sotalol, flecainide, procinamid, ibutilide, and dofetilide), and anticoagulation therapy with warfarin.
