Just diagnosed with Atrial fibrillation
Hi I was diagnosed with A-fib a couple of weeks ago via an ECG trace on my Kardia mobile. I am now on Apixaban 5mgs twice daily and Atenelol and have been advised that an ablation is the best way forward. I only have had 3 episodes to my knowledge and so it paroxysmal but makes me feel pretty unwell

New kid on the bloc!! Recently in hospital with AF first time!(such a surprise!) Then UnstableTachy/Brady Syndrome diagnosed . Prescribed Apixiban 5mg twice daily and Bisoprolol 1.25 daily.

short afib runs 3 months post ablation
Hello, I had my ablation Jan 27th, unfortunately I am still having short runs of afib at times and experienced significant migraine headaches postop so I’m not in a hurry to repeat the procedure. Has anyone had success after 3 months? My EP doesn’t think it will settle much further. Unfortunately I

Melatonin with AF medication
I’m on Flecainide , bisoprolol for AF plus Apixaban,. Melatonin is supposed to aid sleep , does anyone on the group have experience using melatonin with the above , the pharmacist I’ve spoken to said there shouldn’t be a problem but didn’t sound too reassuring.

ADA (American Dental Association) protocol on being premedicated before Dental Appointments
Hi All, Since there is so much confusion on whether or not you need antibiotics before a Dental appointment, I decided to send the site (updated January 5, 2022) on the ADA protocol for premedication before an appointment.

Week 3 Post Ablation
21 days has passed since my Cryoablation. I have had 10 separate episodes of AFIB. Some just a couple of hours, sometimes 2 in one day. I understand that I am in blanking period. my question to the group, when an episode starts, what action do you take? Do you rest, do continue on with daily activities

Pirtobrutinib approved by my insurance company
On my last visit to Upenn, my blood counts were significantly higher and after 4 years on Calquence, it has stopped working. My specialist was hoping I’d make it thru January 2024 when they expect Pirto to approved for CLL, but that’s not likely. I reached out to see if I qualified for Pirto under

Inhaler causing A Fib
Hi everyone, On Tuesday I had an episode of a fib. It lasted 16 hours. I take metoprolol Succinate Er 25mg. The next day after using one of my inhalers Incruse Ellipta I felt kinda off.

Suitability for catheter ablation?
Hello I was diagnosed with AF a month ago. When asked, my GP told me that catheter ablation is not really done for Atrial Fibrillation. Since many of you on this forum, and elsewhere, have had a catheter ablation, I wonder whether there were any special circumstances that made the ablation appropriate

Decision time!
Would be grateful for your views on my afib journey. Was diagnosed last November with paroxysmal afib, 2.6% burden. Burden up to 6% (from 7 day monitor in March). Have reacted badly to both flecainide and bisoprolol - fatigue, faintness, short of breath. Have been advised to have an ablation. However
