In her 20s, Anne noticed some irregularities in her heartbeat. She was advised it wasn’t dangerous but became concerned as the symptoms worsened over the years. After she had more severe symptoms following a blood donation at work, she was referred to a cardiologist. Medication helped her, but she wanted a long-term solution.
