One of our best friends is a nurse that guides the doctors during Watchman implantation.

I’m just an OT on the acute care floor so a lot of what she does is wayyyyyy outside of my scope but it sounds like a potentially life-saving procedure.

You get Watchman after you have been diagnosed, know several folks that have it. BUT - the issue continues for people that have not been diagnosed. Get a physical including an EKG, talk with your doc, it's having A-FIB and not knowing/treating that kills you, or makes you severely impaired. That's a lot worse than taking blood thinners or other treatment.
