After being blue lighted to hospital at the weekend for fast Af and super low bradycardia I was discharged with a plain of ablation and fitting a pacemaker at some point. The thing is I've constant what feels like chest pain/pressure it's very uncomfortable to the point painful. Has anyone experienced it after a long run of high AF 230 and low bradycardia 35 attack. I asking for people's experiences with it before rushing calling my doctors incase it's common lol.

All chest pains need to be checked out.

I had chest pain once and dialled 999 two lady paramedics came. One felt along the top of my chest. and I was surprised that where she pressed was exactly where the pain was. "How did you know exactly where the pain is," I asked. She replied, "It's Costochondritis I had it myself a few weeks ago and know that it does feel exactly like you're having a heart attack."

I'm not saying that this is what you have but it's vital that you get it checked. If you dial 999 paramedics will come and do an ECG to see if it is a heart attack or not.

Doesn't matter that you've already been to hospital.

Sorry to hear that, hope you get a thorough check out. I have had mild ache around the chest area after a particularly bad episode but usually goes within 24 hours. As Jean says, all chest pain should be checked out. Let us know how you go. X
