Just diagnosed on Thursday with Afib after second cardiac ablation for SVT
I had my second ablation for SVT on Thursday and have been diagnosed with AF among other things. I also have an autoimmune disease, liver disease (NASH) and a few other things. The Cardio now wants to put me on Flecainide and Diltiazem. I go back to see him on the 2nd where we will have the discussion

AV Node ablation, I've read that much I am lost on the benefit
If I still feel the same in a couple of months he is proposing an
AV
node
ablation
.

Does anyone have atrial fibrillation?
I was diagnosed with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) last August, at a time when I was on the waiting list for thyroid surgery. Since then I had several episodes of AF (lasting for six to twelve hours on average). Been taking flecainide for a while and recently also Dilzem. Waiting for catheter ablation

Are you put to sleep when you have ablation or given just a local also is there a difference between catheter ablation and radiofrequency
Ablation if so which is best and does it work first time

Bit of an update not been on much
Well had appt with rheumy week ago and we had a long discussion about stuff. He started off saying he thinks a lot of my pain is fibromyalgia and sleep apnea until he had a look at my blood test results, really high inflammatory markers and changed his mind about that assumption. I aslo told him that

Has anyone had a convergent procedure on their heart? I understand it is a surgical ablation in which there will be a catheter ablation too

Post AF catheter ablation how long does it normally take to be pain free?
3 months since a successful ablation but despite the first 2 weeks feeling great I now always seem to have chest pains. Doctor has told me everything is OK and just start to get more active which I am but am I just expecting too much too soon ? How long has it taken other people to get back to full strength

Hi Everybody. I have just been on the DVLA site and found that if you have a pacemaker you have to declare it.
(Did not have
AV
node
ablation
). Now I am declaring it will I be fined? ( I also have A.F). It does ask when it was fitted. Anyone had this situation. Thanks for any replies. Sunigirl .

More Murphy's Law for me
Well I have been a bit quiet lately as I have been so tired. I found out on top of whatever I have I also have wolff parkinson white syndrome heart condition. Well I geared up went in for the cardiac ablation last Thursday and they had to stop it as my heart went in to atrial fibrillation and he couldn't

Catheter Ablation
Hi All, I have just joined the website and it is nice to know that I can share my feelings with others who are in the same position. I had a routine examination at my GPs and was told that my heart was missing a beat. Later in that week I had an ECG and was diagnosed with AF. I read a lot about the

Does anyone have experience of a hybrid ablation?
Hello, all being well with the rest of my heart, I'm about to undergo a hybrid ablation, a relatively new procedure in the UK. I'm wondering if anyone else in the community has experienced this and how was it for you? It will be a 2 part procedure with the surgical thoracic part coming first. I'd like

Recovering from cardiac ablation.
Had ablation in mid Jan 2014, recovering well, pulse in sinus rhythm most of the time, only seems to become arrhythmic when i have stomach cramps and diarrhoea. Am on Amiodrone 200mg daily (since ablation), Bisopropal 5mg and Warfarin 7mg, any advice?, anyone else experiencing the same?

Hello, I've just subscribe to HealthUnlocked, this will be my 1st posting. Has anyone had an AV ablation/pacemaker done? how successful was
I've now come to the end of the line, a
AV
node
ablation
has now been mentioned, I'm due to see the EP specialist next week. I'm not happy about having one done, hoping there's someone among you that has & can give me positive feedback.

In from the unknown...how I found out about AF
Before I get underway I'd really like to hear from you, particularly if you've had a successful ablation. It began for me in 2009 when visiting a Urologist he checked my pulse and advised I see a cardiologist. I was diagnosed with Atrial Flutter and was explained risked and the reason for some side

Does the catheter ablation have any effect on "simple" palpitations? I have rapid paroxsymal AF and am considering the ablation.
I started the AF episodes 3 years ago. They were 1x 6 months, 1x 3 months... now 1-2 per each month. So I have been told the ablation would be the best solution. I use the "pill in the pocket" method at present with Flecainide and Metoprolol and it takes about 5-6 hours to stop the episode BUT I feel

Can endometrial ablation fail? Had it done in May 2013...womb lining has grown back?!?!
I have stage iv endo, I had ablation and removal of endo done. Pain started returning after 2-3 months so went onto mini-pill. Had scan to check for ovarian cysts and it shows my womb lining has thickened again. Am I doomed? Help

Any advice - I'm running out of steam and just can't keep fighting.
Hello all. I've spent the better part of two years fighting a former employer. I was arrested at the time( a horrendous experience) as she claimed I had commited fraud. The police then released me with no charge a couple of months later. Since the chief constable and the head of the CPS became involved
