Do you mean FIBRILLATION?
Fibrillation is the rapid, irregular, and unsynchronised contraction of the muscle fibres of the heart. There are two major classes of fibrillation, atrial fibrillation and ventricular fibrillation.
Atrial fibrillation can be a chronic condition, usually treated with anticoagulants and sometimes with electrical stimulation (defibrillation) to revert to normal sinus rhythm.
Ventricular fibrillation is rapidly fatal if not reversed by defibrillation.
Fibrillation may sometimes be used after heart surgery to stop the heart from beating while any minor leaks are stitched up.

never heard of that particular word. Fribrilliation is what happend when the electrical rythm of the heart is disrupted and stops beating properly. it can be fixed by defribrillation that is applying an electrical shock to the chest to supress the incorrect rythm and hopeully let the bodies natural rythm take over once more.

It's heart condition that causes palpitations, vomiting and faintness. Famously President Bush Senior had an attack when visiting Japan and vomited all over the Japanese Prime Minister.

It's a nonsense word, part of the phrase "frials and fribulations" meaning "difficulties."

You may be thinking of "tribulation," which means:
"Great affliction, trial, or distress; suffering. An experience that tests one's endurance, patience, or faith."
It appears most often in the phrase "trials and tribulations."
