It's a wonderful feeling to be back in sinus rhythm isn't it. I felt like crying and couldn't thank those involved enough. Stay well.

Hi alil,

My cardioversion went really well, they ad to give me 3 zaps so I've got 2 big burn marks but to be able to do things without getting out of breath is fantastic, I can't make people understand how brill I feel , hope you feel the same and glad yours went well x

It's amazing isn't it - I was on a high yesterday. Bit tired today and have done as ordered and not done anything except sit about! It is great to go upstairs without being breathless. I was lucky in that it only took one zap so I've got some red marks but nothing hurts. Long may it last. x
