Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
AFib has mainly 2 treatment - one is prevention of stroke, which is treated by blood thinner called as anticoagulants. Second is the rate control, which is done by group of drugs which decrease the heart rate. There are also advanced treatment available for the same. I suggest you meet an electrophysiologist. He would be a doctor, who specializes in rhythm disorders.
Hope this helps. If any other queries, do let me know. Will be glad to help you out.
