Hello

I have many heart conditions including AF, A flutter, both permanent, heart failure and pulmonary hypertension etc

I have been feel a awful fluttering on my right side of chest now as well as the normal left heart side

Does anyone else have this? Who had Aflutter or any other heart conditions it make me feel quite unwell not enough to go to hospital but uncomfortable and unpleasant

I of course get it on left side in heart area but odd in right?

My problem started with A Flutter which developed in to what my describe as A typical Flutter on my left side. I had an ablation for the right which took about an hour. I have not had a reoccurring with A Flutter (right side) since the ablation about 3 years ago.

I have it. Started after I was given flecanide as daily dose without beta blocker for Af. It's easier to control than AF and also easier to ablate .

It's a bit scary isn't it! Best wishes xx

Hello

Yes it’s not nice. I have had 4 ablations which haven’t fixed the AF or A flutter so no more ablations

I do take Beta blockers already for heart failure

I have had flecanide in the past

It’s so odd to have on complete opposite side of the chest

I feel for you -- four ablations and still have AF and flutter. Were you persistent for your first ablation, and if so, How many months?

So, you were paroxysmal for your first ablation, and had a subsequent three. Your heart is really naughty. Wishing you the best.
