Looking for suggestions on how to help my dad (73, but in reasonable shape). Currently on Coumadin and Amiodarone. AFib is back. Not sure if it is the AFib or the MEDS, but he is Dizzy, weak, and shaky.

Is MAZE still an option at his age? (I HOPE). He does not want to go under the knife, but I want to know about all options when I go talk to his Dr.

Can any older MAZE patients let me know how they handled the operation.

Thanks in advance.

Blair
