Pre assement tomorrow ready for my 3rd cardioversion Tuesday. Hopefully it will work but I don't have much faith.

If the others have worked, even for a short period maybe you should seek advice about having an ablation. If you get to the point where CV’s do not work, you are likely to find an ablation might not be successful either. Hopefully you Doctor will raise this but if not, you certainly should.....good luck with the CV......

I`m on my third too Ollie. So far so good and still in NR.

After the first two I wasn't given any med`s. Now I`m on Flec and convinced it`s helping keep me out of afib.

When you go for your pre assessment ask about med`s to help you stay in sinus after the CV. They may say no but it`s certainly worth enquiring about.

Best,

Paul

OK Ollie - sounds like they have sorted out the med`s for you. Good luck with the CV anyway - hope it works OK.

I`m on 6 weeks NR since mine and counting !

Best,

Paul

Once again good luck and I really hope it works well for you this time.
