Is this controlled?
I'm 53 with no heart disease and have been on daily flecanide (100mg x3 daily - I'm 6'6" and 16 stone hence the large dose) and 2.5mg of bisoporol. I get an AFib break through almost everyday, normally if I am late taking my flecanide. However the incidents are very low level - 80-90 bpm, mildly irregular

Stopping Sotalol suddenly
I had my first episode of AF last December and I think I have had one since which lasted a couple of hours but by the time I could get it checked I was back in sinus rhythm. Bisoprolol didn't suit me so I was put on 40mg Sotalol twice a day. However my blood pressure and heart rate is quite low so

Amiodarone
My EP is suggesting that I try amiodarone. My history is of 3 ablations, 2016, 2018, 2020. Last one finally touched up the scars that had “failed” - so the afib seems to be gone. But they couldn’t trigger my tachycardia during the ablation. And annoyingly, the tachycardia is much more frequent (daily

Eight and a half weeks post ablation
Thanks for all the well wishers after my cryo-ablation at Stoke. The first 3 days were fine with just a few palpitations. The next two weeks were a nightmare with 5 visits to Burton Queen's A & E with heart rates varying between 170 and 75. Increasing volumes of Bisoprolol and then Sotalol were prescribed

PVCs post cardioversion
Been in hospital since I left home after a cardioversion that put me in nsr but with multiple PVCs and going in and out of Afib which resulted in me being taken by ambulance with fluid overload on lungs and heart. Still in on a monitor and waiting on next move as don’t feel good like this. On dronederone

A question about angiogram/ablation
I have had AF for at least 15 years, controlled by bisoprolol and increasing doses of flecainide. For reasons not quite clear to me I'm now booked in for an angiogram. My GP followed it up and tells me it's because I said I'd think about an ablation. It's hard to know who said what when all appointments

Returning to Sinus with Exercise?
I was diagnosed with paroxysmal AFib in May 2021 which is being managed by meds (Flec + AC) and I continue to have intermittent episodes lasting between 1 day and 5 days. At the beginning of June this year, I was given permission to return to the gym. I'm 60, male, non-smoker, non-drinker, 68kg, 3

Had an ablation in February and everything was great until....
Hello: I was diagnosed with Afib in October 2021. The Dr had to do a cardioversion just to get it back into rhythm & was in the hospital for 30 hrs. Dr prescribed Eliquis & Amiodarone to keep it in rhythm & protect from blood clots. Had the ablation in February, had 3 months of Afib then everything

Anyone else hit 250bpm+ at rest in Afib?
I had a thought earlier while discussing some of my health issues with my husband - I've posted quite a lot on here, and discussed how my heart hits 200+bpm and I've even recorded it a few times ranging from 250-300bpm during my episodes and I have not seen anyone else post similar. I need to go to

Afib heat laser Ablation
Here's a quick back round. 61 years old. Have had Afib off and on for 25+ years. So after countless Cardioversions, numerous Homeopathic regimens and a try of SotaloI (which was the worst by the way). I always ended up back in Afib along with the terrible quality of life that goes with it within days

I think my first cardioversion failed
I'm new here. I was diagnosed with Afib Dec 2021 by my GP. I saw a Cardiologist in June 2022 and he recommended a cardioversion. I had a cardioversion done on late June it was successful after one shock. My heart rate went from high 90 to 50. But after a week my heart rate went back to 90. My thoughts

Anxiety with Afib
Hi have had Afib episodes for 20 years, usually only for couple of hours, helped by metoprolol. I was in Resus overnight for thelast episode, had 3 different IV beta blockers, to no avail, and was finally given oral Flecainide, which worked after 40 minutes, and prevented cardioversion.. That was

Is Atrial Fibrillation connected to the Thyroid?
I am wondering if through a change in thyroid hormone type and dosage one can modify or cure Atrial Fibrillation? Several here have mentioned that irregular heartbeat or palpitations have decreased with the use of T3, however, I don't recall reading anything about adjustments in hormone replacement

In afib day after ablation
I just had a cryo ablation 4 days ago. I woke up from the procedure in afib. I went back in rhythm but the next day afib started again and continued for 3 days. Is this normal or did it not work? I have also been having sulfur burps and diarrhea. I’m 36years old… every dr I’ve seen has never seen afib

Heart having a funny few minutes!
Anyone know what this dip means on the ecg? I am not concerned about the bradycardia as I take meds. But could really feel this beat happening and felt weird. Different from a fib.

heatstroke / exhaustion?
Doing very well up to 2 days ago, on 7.5 mgs. I am going to a wedding tomorrow - but appear to have heatstroke from a very hot, long walk in Greece. Nausea, headache, dizziness - all too familiar in a way. It hasnt gone off after 2 days. Would you increase the pred temporarily (fearing this would be
