Been a while & I said I would post after cardio Appmt in Dec. I had my specialist consultation in Dec with the teaching hospital, my local district general had referred me to.
It has been agreed that I will have to have surgical not catheter ablation due to my occluder device. However, because I have been PAF free since March, this has all gone on hold & they have discharged me back to the local hospital for now. Basically all of the ducks are in a row when & if I need to re-present!
My consultant feels that the HRT & lifestyle changes are attributing to my AF being in remission.
Yey 👏👏👏

Great news! Stay away from intervention if you can. I've read your past posts and you have done so well with lifestyle changes. Long may you stay in remission!
Isn’t it just! I’ve googled menopause & AF but not much out there apart from increased palpitations. I know for certain oestrogen plays a part in our cardio health! Here here HRT!
Some people are affected by the adrenaline brought on by exercise, others can terminate an episode by exercising. If I keep my HR around 100 max, I seem to be OK. But, it's not enough if you like high intensity workouts.
"4. Adrenergic AFib is when your episodes occur mostly during the day and are normally triggered by exercise, exertion, or stimulants. In this type of AFib the adrenaline hormone is the trigger. For some people with this type of AFib, exercise can trigger an episode."
