Hi,

Thanks for your question on HCM
I do understand your pain and discomforts

As per your clinical history is concerned you have AF which has been confirmed by your Doctor as per ECG report. Persistent AF means your heart rhythm does not go back to normal on its own.you need medications for it. To look for causes responsible for it do a thyroid profile blood test, CBC, lipid profile, ECG/echo, chest X-ray, and check your blood pressure every day up to 15 days. If any abnormality findings comes then contact with your doctor and show these reports.please provide all medicine history then I can tell if it is right or not.

Hope that helps
