CardioVersion

[capercaille]

Can anyone tell me of their experience, please, of undergoing a cardioversion for AFib/tachycardia?

My husband had an emergency cardioversion after a VT storm. You won't know anything about it as you'll be sedated, it doesn't take long to do and you'll be brought round quickly when it's been done. It's a very quick procedure, one that's very routine & with no after effects.I hope the cardioversion cures your AF/ tachycardia, I understand the success rate is very high.

Good luck

Thank you very much for your encouraging reply. I'm not sure how long I might have to wait for it, but I'm almost looking forward to it thanks to your encouragement!

Hopefully you'll not wait too long. Perhaps you could phone the hospital and ask how long the waiting list is & if you could go on the cancellation list

What a sensible idea … will do. Thank you.
