Tough luck. Are you having chest pain with your AF? Unusual to be kept in once they have established it is only AF.
Ive not had chest pain Bob but ive also got dilated cardiomyopathy and couple other heart related problems thats why they kept me in. Plus with getting moved to another hospital im just waiting for a bed to become available x
I was sent to hospital as well. They kept me in, tried various drugs on me till they found one that worked great, then back home, so hope you get similar
It took about 8 days, but half of that was just because it was Christmas and they were all on holiday.

Sorry to her of the complications is anything straightforward?
on both occasions I took myself to hospital they kept in me in for a few days and all wired up an nowhere to go. Tedious but comforting that you are being watched. I presumed they liked to keep you under observation until they think things can settle down for you .
Hope it all works out - good luck
