Suggest Treatment For Dry Mouth And Dehydration

My husband had micro valve surgery 5 years ago plus he was in atrial fibulation. He has been doing good but since Saturday his heart has been racing, his pulse is between 140 and 150, he has a dry mouth. I think he may be dehydrated. Can the symptoms I have described be from being dehydrated?

Hello,

He might be again in atrial fibrillation as it can recur. Do not delay. Please visit a cardiologist to again confirm with ECG, echo to rule of major issues.

If its normal then it could be even because of mild infection and fever to be on safer side rule out major causes.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
