Male 66yrs old, afib, bp137/90, heart rate 107, go to er or wait for appt with cardiologist 10/12?

Go to ER: There is significant risk of stroke if one remains in an irregularly irregular rhythm such as atrial fibrillation and therefore, urgent medical attention is needed. Go to ER. Do not wait till 10/12/15!
