Exercise after cardiac ablation
Hello! I'm 7 days post ablation for atrial flutter. Feel good mostly, a little breathless occasionally. Pre ablation I was doing 30 mins yoga and walking 3 miles + most days. I'm really looking for advice on getting back to walking and yoga. I've tried a couple of walks, but I'm tiring very fast. Thank

Atrial Myopathy vs. AF
Found this very interesting research article on the etiology of AF and it’s relationship to atrial myopathy & stroke, with possible tests to weed out candidates for anti-coagulation. It also discusses patients with atrial myopathy without AF who might be at risk. Should be of particular interest to

Heavy periods (sorry it's a long post)
Hi, I have always had horrible heavy and painful periods and really want them to stop, I just can't cope with it. The problem is that I never seem to be taken seriously, I always feel like I'm basically being told to grow up and deal with it because it's unpleasant for everyone. But it isn't unpleasant

SVT treatment
I had been suffering from intermittent palpitations and racing heart with exercise so the cardiologist had a monitor fitted for 14 days. The results lead the consultant to diagnose SVT and the recommendation is catheter ablation. I have been told that the procedure has some small associated risks and

Cardiac Ablation for Frequent PVC and PACs - 6 Weeks out and struggling
Hello! I am new here, 28F, and 6 weeks post-ablation. I am told my ablation was a success, since they weren't able to duplicate the PVCs, PACs, and NSVT. However, I have had an awful recovery and I'm looking for some advice as to whether or not this is normal. I've been to my physician's office countless

Have any of you had a hybrid ablation?
One of the other choices was to oblate the
AV
node
, third choice was to have another regular
ablation
, which he seem to think may not be very successful . Would like to know if any of you had success with a hybrid ablation? Thanks

Is this phrenic nerve damage?
Hi all I had catheter ablation for AF last July ( UK - NHS). Whole thing was a dogs dinner, the pain was unbelievable. In the evening had spectacular hiccups and terrible reflux - had to sleep on my back propped up on pillows or drown in my last meal. Two days later back in hospital with total heart

Curious Variation in Atrial Fib Incidence, Mortality Across Europe

Slight Irregular heartbeat
After
av
node
ablation
and pacemaker, I still have a slightly irregular heart beat at times. Does that mean my ventricles are still working a little on their own? It may be PVC's.

Why do some people develop HF after av node ablation and pacemaker and some don't. They say about 40% do.
I had an
av
node
ablation
and pacemaker two months ago and feel really good. I was not informed of the possibility of developing AF at the time or about the biventricular pacemaker which I did not get. What determines why some people get it and some do not.
