I have been reading this forum for around a year now, and thought I would post today for the first time to contribute.
Since being diagnosed with AF over a year ago, life has changed considerably. Not knowing I had AF, just thinking I was just ‘super unfit’ when trying to tend the allotment and sweating profusely when doing physically active tasks. It was picked up by my GP when I paid him a visit for another reason.
The biggest change I have experienced is the side effects of the drugs (Bisoprolol 7.5mg, Ramipiril 2.5mg, Edoxaban 60mg) to manage my AF. Tiredness and lethargy being the main ones.
Following 2 failed cardioversions, and then almost 9 months waiting for this day to come, I have a mixture of fear and excitement for the future. Not sure what to expect.
I will update this post as the following days pass for anyone interested.
