A-fib is back

Another A-Fib session. I took my wife out to dinner last Sunday. Arrived about 6 pm at the restaurant. This was a standup and order then sit down and wait for your meal place. My wife was ordering and I felt faint for a second and then I realized that A-Fib was back. My heart rate was about 128 and I went ahead and ordered and ate with no problems. After the meal, I drove us home. Checked my pulse rate which was steady at 128 BPM. Later went grocery shopping and loaded and unloaded the groceries without any issues. A-fib was still in power when I went to bed about 10:30 PM. I went to sleep and when I woke up I was back to normal. My time between the last A-fib session and this one was about 12 weeks. I have found that I can funmction as normal while A-fib is in session.

That's good! Up until this year I could never have done any of that when in A-fib, it's only the last 2 since my 5th ablation in January that I've been able to function!

Hope the meal was nice and the eposide hasn't knocked you out too much.

Glad you are doing better. At this time it has not bothered me a lot. From what I'm reading a lot of people on HU are seriously bothered. Best wishes to all.
