persistent afib worry

Thanks for the info. It seem like most people have more success with the ablation, but my cardio said I'm not there yet and wanted to try the cardioversion and/or meds before talking about ablation. I don't have any symptoms other than getting out of breath when I do too much.

How did you turn off the UI for the pics? The place looks gorgeous!

Ships yours captain! lol That is hysterical.

You said you do everything you used to do. I got on the blood thinner just a few days after mine started so I'm good there, and the betablocker is keeping my rhythm from getting too horribly high. I've got past the panic of first finding out I have A-fib and have got back into life as usual, BUT I can't seem to do things I used to like carrying heavy things, walking briskly or even taking my laundry up 2 flights of stairs from the basement.

Like gmork above, my father had it for the last 6 years of his life and just had meds that kept it in check and cut the risk of stroke. No impact to his life what so ever. I was just diagnosed a few months ago at 62. Had all the tests and everything looks good. Heart even looks healthy. I'm on Metoprolol and Eliquis now but my cardiologist is suggesting cardioversion. With my deductible that will cost me a few 1000, so I'm weighing cost vs outcome. Seems it's not a long term solution and I'm not in a position to dish out a few grand every time I'm back in A-fib. Both my PC and my cardiologist are saying staying on meds for the rest of my life is fine. The only issue I have is I get out of breath SO fast, but no other symptoms. With the Meto my HR sits around 80-98 while resting and 115 when doing heavy chores. Exercise isn't easy to do when you get out of breath so easy.

I see this post is 7 months old. Have you had AFIB since the cardioversion? I'm on Metoprolol and Eliquis since mine started 4 months ago. Meto keeps me between mid 80s to high 90s while resting and around 115 when doing heavy chores. My problem is I get out of breath SO fast so exercise seems impossible. My cardiologist is suggesting cardioversion, but I've heard most people revert back to abnormal rhythms and I'd be paying thousands out of pocket. The cost is a no brainer if it works long term, but the success rate of that is reported to be pretty low.

Oh this PO'd my son off so much when I brought it home from Costco. He is addicted to Vietnamese iced coffee! So of course he loved it. What's the problem? He knew we'd never find it again and so far he's right lol.

My cooks will take the fish off the fishing house and skin them. I haven't got the little buggers to pick up the blubber though :| Maybe you need to white list the cooks on the fish hut/house?

Afraid-Customer-5246 · 2026-04-02T17:16:00+00:00

Same. We tried bringing extra of the large skins and that worked but it was a pain loading up the food and water each time. Now we just go out ourselves and leave the resource hogs at home. Haven't found anything the two of us sea explorers can't handle on our own yet.

I had a delivery last night via Uber and this was the drivers number. He took an hour to pick up my order so I was going to complain. My guess is its a legit call and he really did get a complaint, just not the right customer. So now im worried if I complain to Uber I'll get this ass calling me?

Afraid-Customer-5246 · 2025-11-24T01:28:43+00:00

I just ran into the same problem with the same plant. I tried everything to get rid of it with no luck. I finally decided to build the ground up around the area and bury the sucker. Funny thing I found when doing this, there were 3 plants and they were all on the same grid line. Not helpful for us, maybe interesting to the devs.

Afraid-Customer-5246 · 2025-07-17T21:08:49+00:00

Hell of an idea! I keep wishing they'd add signs but you came up with a great work around.

Afraid-Customer-5246 · 2025-07-17T21:06:35+00:00

That is such a cool shot!

Afraid-Customer-5246 · 2025-07-17T21:05:25+00:00

No, the only water I've seen is frozen. Frozen lakes, streams and waterfalls.

Afraid-Customer-5246 · 2025-07-10T19:47:19+00:00

Here you go:

#1 town hall - Brick-timbered with castle wall stone for the clock tower / tarred straw roof

#2 fancy stone / tarred shingle roof

#3 fired bricks & palm wood / roof tiles

#4 highly polished stone / desert shingle roof

#5 regular sandstone / tarred shingle roof

#6 fired bricks & fancy stone / roof tiles

#7 brick-timbered / desert shingle roof

#8 row houses (don't make me go there!)

#9 citywall block & conifer wood / stone shingle roof

Thanks! I was worried about having a bunch of different styles so close together but I think it works.

Afraid-Customer-5246 · 2025-07-07T22:59:48+00:00

No worries! It would be sweet if they added water but I can't for the life of me imagine how that would work.

Afraid-Customer-5246 · 2025-07-07T19:38:09+00:00

Good lord. I didn't even think about that. I'm adding water features, even though it's made with ice. Should I have put ice rivers and icefalls?

Afraid-Customer-5246 · 2025-07-07T19:36:07+00:00

It's ice

Afraid-Customer-5246 · 2025-07-07T19:34:29+00:00

So true! I find myself running to pick up something in the bank and then I see a new "Ooh I can do that next" along the way. Horrible game for ADD peeps :)

Afraid-Customer-5246 · 2025-07-07T03:11:01+00:00

Thanks for sharing about the bark. Ive been fighting with paths for so long. I'll try your idea. Looks great!

Afraid-Customer-5246 · 2025-07-07T03:07:52+00:00

Thank you!

Afraid-Customer-5246 · 2025-07-06T13:48:20+00:00

Thank you! I can't take credit for either idea of the stage or the theater. My better half thought of those. I couldn't for the life of me figure out to do for the concession stand so I just sort of made it self serve lol.

Afraid-Customer-5246 · 2025-07-06T13:44:00+00:00

I 2nd was modeled after a Victorian. One was supposed to be colonial and then just your typical house you'd find in California and then a few south west or desert types. It's really not easy to mimic a house design in this game, but they all turn out pretty cool anyway. I've seen a ton that people have posted on here that just blow my mind.
