Thoughts on Ablate AV Node and Pace
I have a long history of AF which resulted recently with me being admitted following a routine Echo as I was apparently in very fast uncontrolled AF. After the various obligatory tests I was told a cardioversion had been arranged for the following morning and I was started on Digoxin (which I am still

Feeling fatigue and lightheaded after ablation
I had a pulmonary vein catheter ablation 6 weeks ago and all was relatively well till about week 4. For the last 2 weeks I feel fatigue and lightheaded is this expected during healing? I do not feel any afib (my watch ecg also indicate i am in NSR), my pulse is elevated and spikes if I move/walk around

Wolf Parkinson White - should I have an ablation?
Hi I'm 41 and keen runner. Last year I had my first and only seizure while running. After lots of tests done for epilepsy all came back clear, although this does not rule out epilepsy it makes it unlikely (great). I have had cancer in the past and I am therefore extremely glad it wasn't that too. A

Migraine after catheter ablation
I had my ablation two weeks ago. I was ill the next morning, didn't feel like eating normally for four days and had an attack of migraine every single day for eleven days, some were worse than others. I thought it was just me and I ended up in A&E on the fifth day. I was given Sumatriptan tablets.

At my age, did not want to live with such a high (sometimes 138 HR) so opted for a

AV node
Have a pacemaker fitted having a AV node ablation today to stop irregular heart beat and hopefully help shortage of breath any tips for exercise afterwards.

Worried about the way forward
Awaiting contact from Cardiologist- may need catheter ablation procedure- anyone out there had this done? Afib nurse said with my symptoms and test results so far ablation maybe treatment plan option- I am scared as symptoms all came on so suddenly.

Recently had a cardiac ablation
Ive been having terrible mood swings - I feel angry all the time and over the littlest things, I'm freezing all the time and I'm so tired. I was just wondering if anyone else had a similar experience and what you did to ease them? I know that these are probably just side effects and will eventually

Post Cardiac Ablation Floaters / Spots
Hi All, I received a successful
cardiac
ablation
back in August, 2019 which involved trans-septal puncture. For the subsequent month, I experienced a number of visual aura disturbances without migraine (these have since subsided).

Anxious starting Tildiem for SVT’s
I’ve had SVT’s for many years. Made worse I believe by long term steroid use for bowel disease. The latest episode landed me in resuscitation Monday night after near two hours at home with 180Bpm. I know they can go higher than that. In the end I needed an injection (not adenosine as asthmatic), as the

Bleeding during sex
Had endometrial ablation May 2019 along with lots of other tests and smear due to occasional spotting between periods. Since the ablation I know roughly when my period is due due to breast pain and I get one but very light. Normally it is having sex that kicks this off. Last Friday 15th after quite vigorous

Fast heart rate after ablation for atrial tachycardia
Hi there, I had a catheter ablation for atrial tachycardia on Friday last week. The tachycardia I was experiencing had been exclusively brought on by exercise, particularly running. I haven’t yet gone back out for a run but today I had an incident where I bent down to pick something up and suddenly

AV Node ablation & CRT Pacemaker
Hi I'm another newbie. I had a heart attack 20 years ago at the age of 55. It left me with atrial fibrillation and over the years I have been treated with medication, 2 pulmonary vein isolation ablations and 7 cardioversions. I don't seem to have many options left to me know and I have recently been

Home Use Oximeter & Atrial Fibrillation
I've just bought a little gadget called an oximeter which as you may know clips on your index finger and measures your oxygen saturation level (normal range usually 95-99%). It's an inexpensive item and may not be completely accurate but gives a good indication of oxygen saturation level. I did this

Ablation for ectopic beats
Cardiac
ablation
was discussed with me initially but they wanted to try medication first as i was informed it can be difficult to ablate. I have been waiting for a tilt table test heard nothing yet from the last communication 4 weeks ago.

AV node ablation
I’m looking at AVNode ablation option if cardioversion does not work which is scheduled for 2 weeks with loading on tykosyn in hospital. Could those of you who have had the node ablation or have information about it please share? I have been told I cannot continue being in tachycardia days after day
