Too hard for 400char: You need to discuss this w/your cardiologist or ep dr, as particularly @ 30yo, likely have some structural issue causing recurrent af, so may be hard to long-term convert. Might consider ablation procedure if af only coming from spot or few in atrium. Need to be sure thyroid functioning properly & no other issues.
