Therapulse update

[50568789]

Much relieved to have confirmation from Arrythmia Nurse that they see no reason not to use Therapulse while in recovery period from a cryoablation for Atrial Fibrillation. I was unsure if vibration might somehow affect heart rhythm/ trigger irregular beat, but given green light and can still use my most reliable treatment to manage RLS.

Good news: vibration stimulation of the peroneal nerve felt more likely to be safe for AF than either electrical stimulation to the same nerve or to the much longer vagus nerve. Hope it continues to work for you!

That's great. So pleased you are still able to use it.

My Therapulse has been a real help to me...but it still isn't a cure...but gives relief after using. I'm going to try taking B complex vitamins, as suggested by another member... hope Therepulse helps you.

Ironically RLS raised its ugly head last night, think it was a combination of hot weather , too much salt in food , and England's lousy performance in Euros. Thank God I could use Therapulse, as you say it's not a cure but it's about quality of life, it enabled me to get back to sleep and retain my sanity (what's left !).
