General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,
as he is having auricular fibrillation with high blood pressure, he requires cardiologist consultation as early as possible.
He might require medicine for AF like Cordarone, Lanoxin and blood thinner like Warferrin medicine.
Remain in regular follow up with cardiologist.
Ok and take care.
