After waiting 9 months for clots to clear i am finally having my first attempted CV tomorrow. The EP is confident of success as my Afib was brought on by a specific cause, not just randomly triggered. Fingers crossed, looking forward to NSR.

Best of luck to you for tomorrow Gazza! You should feel great once you're back in NSR.

Good luck. It's really is a doddle but you MUST take it easy for the first 72 hours and you must not drive for the first 48 hours. Also preferable to have someone drive you home rather than public transport.

However IF you do go back into AF in the next few weeks do NOT worry because that happens in the majority of cases and the key test will have been passed which is you cann go back into NSR.
