After cardioversion

Hi me again

My husband had a cardioversion on Friday. It wasn't the same as usual when he has had Arrythmia but for severe atrial flutter and it was a rushed job in A & E where he was only partially sedated so he felt it. His heart rhythm/ speed is back to normal but he feels rubbish.

Normally after the procedure he feels well again. This time he is still a bit breathless, and constantly fatigued.

Two years ago he went into heart failure but this had improved a lot and he was nearly in normal range before this happened.

Anybody had a similar experience? Will he recover? He is saying if this is it for him he would rather die .

Thank you for listening

Debbie
