A F taking my breath away

So having had 4 spells in the Cardiac unit over 4 months this year, June to September.

I have had my tablets changed and jiggled about.

I manage alright, until I try to walk anywhere, often resulting in breathlessness and Nausea. So I use a Mobility Scooter, any one else suffer like this ? .

Hi there Cas. Do you have permanent AF or are you free of it some of the time?

What tablets do you take? Sometimes taking them at a different time of day can be helpful. A pharmacist can often have useful advice to offer.

Hi, sorry been long time replying had a bad 4 months of A Fib.

Now had Cathetre Ablation 3 days ago.

Procedure was a little painful, mainly referred pain in my shoulders.

All medication now been juggled and sorted.

Only issue now is I’m very out of breath very lethargic and very fed up

So sorry - I missed replying to you here.

It sounds as if you are making progress, even if there are still issues. I do hope the ablation will have improved things significantly for you and the medication you are now on suits you.

Tedious though lethargy might be, it might be helpful in the first few weeks after your ablation as it is worth taking it easy.

Not what you're looking for?
