Pace and Ablate
I am scheduled for a pace and ablate procedure in October. I've been on multiple rhythm control drugs which sooner or later failed, including Tikosyn, had multiple cardiofversions, and one ablation which failed, I'm told because of my huge left atrium; so I wasn't offered any more ablations. All of

permanent afib
My husband is in permanent AF, he has seen a doctor who didn’t seem worried , but told him to have an ECG. Unfortunately their ECG machine isn’t working and he has now been waiting four weeks for one. Should he be worried, he seems ok in himself. Every one here is so supportive I would like to hear

Atrial Fibrilation & Exercise
Hello! I just wanted to share my story here. I'm in my mid-40s and have had paroxysmal Atrial Fibrilation since early 30s. When I get AF, it never goes away on it's own. The only thing I know which gets it back to sinus rhythm is strenuous exercise. Either a run, jog, or brisk hillwalking- something

Lorazepam and Afib
I there a link between Lorazepam and atrial fibrillation? I used a 1 mg pill to sleep in the night and both times, after 5 or 6 hours, around 6am, I awoke in fibrillation . My usual dangerous time is the early hours of the morning, but Afib comes probably once a month . Is it possible that to

3% Afib burden and proposed medication
UPDATE: I saw an EP today. He advised that, unless I had a pacemaker implanted, medicinal control of my afib was too dangerous because of my already low heart rate. He also went over results from the 30 day monitor and the only time my heart rate went up to 170 bpm was when I was exercising while

post cardioversion
Fast forward to last week when I developed an
atrial
flutter
. Had a cardioversion yesterday which was successful with one shock. But, I got no sleep last night due to chest pain, backache (intense), and am now very lightheaded and headachy. Have felt slightly nauseus too.

persistent afib
posted before so will keep brief is it’normal’ to have irregular rythmn with palpitations (not rapid hr is generally 90ish) constantly. Still cannot believe this is not damaging heart or leading to hf. The actual afib does not particularly trouble me but the flips and flutters are so horrible my anxiety

Bisoprolol dosage with A Fib.
Bisoprolol. I have atrial fibrillation a lot of the time. Sometimes with my pulse in the 60s, sometimes 90s and sometimes 130s. My cardiologist has prescribed 5 mg Bisoprolol every morning and 2.5 mg every evening. I would prefer to vary these amounts and I wonder if anyone has any suggestions for me

Hawthorn supplement helped
I have had paroxysmal AF for several years, but episodes were getting more frequent and lasting longer in the past year. I am a 53 yo female, slim build, never smoked, in good health otherwise. My mom had AF (tachycardia) for 40 yrs and my brother has V tach, so it's very much genetic. I saw the cardiologist

Amiodarone
Hi. After Bisoprolol and Flecainide stopped working I was prescribed Amiodarone last September initially on a loading dose of 3 x 200. This was reduced to 1 x 200 then raised to 2 x 200 when lower dose failed. My question is: do people on Amiodarone have regular blood checks? My blood was tested after

Back in permanent AF
Hi,I have been in sinus rhythm for 3 years after an ablation at Barts and been feeling fit and healthy. 3 weeks ago I woke up and knew straight away I had gone back in to AF, this has now been confirmed after a couple of ECG's at the hospital. I feel very symptomatic at the moment with lots of palpitations
