Had Ablation 11 months ago, Seem to go ok for a wile, then bouts of A F, and now got flutter, Every thing is slow on N H S. nearly a years wait Ablation, 6 months for Cardiovertion,

Is it worth going in a field and touching electric fence like iv'e done a few times when i was a youngster, it might be worth trying it to get me back to normal heart rate,

you never know, got to see the funny side

Had plenty of shocks off ignition systems but never had the desired effect I'm afraid . Sorry but the shock has to be delivered at precisely the right time in the heart cycle or it could stop altogether!

I got a disgusted look off a woman, when I was trying to touch an electric fence and my wife commented that “he’s trying to restart his heart”

I didn’t touch it in the end, even though like you I used to when I was a kid
