Had a cardioversion in November which gave me 2 months freedom from Afib, before returning (see link)

My cardiologist referred me to another hospital with the intention of having a ablation. Sadly, today the other cardiologist that I was referred to has said he will not go ahead due to my weight (150kg / 330lb). I know I need to lose weight but the lack of energy, combined with the depression associated with it, makes it impossible.
He has now prescribed Amiodarone (7 days intensive, followed by a lower dose) and a return to the dreaded Bisoprolol (which I had terrible side effects with a couple of years ago, which I posted about on here) albeit at a lower dose.
He is going to book me in for a 2nd cardioversion in 6 - 8 weeks - so with the change in medication and the new attempt to lose weight, we'll see how the next few weeks pan out!
