My mother is 71 years old and she has heart problems. There is one more test to be done, but the doctors are certain that she suffers from atrial fibrillation. So, what kind of treatment she will receive? Will she use Rhytmol or ablation for her condition? Is Rhytmol a good drug for her?

I guess we will have to wait for a doctor's final diagnose and see what she will be prescribed. As for Rhytmol, it is a drug used for irregular heartbeat and it is also given to people that wish to maintain their regular heartbeat (and who do not have structural heart disease). This drug affects several different fibers in the heart. It might help your mother, but like I said, let's wait for the doctors.
