Hello , I have just had catheter cardiac ablation,11days ago. I am 59. Scared of what to take on or do.
Post procedure advice contradictory. Am I silly to be scared of taking a flight for an hour to Dublin for work ,2 weeks after my procedure?Just been slowly walking and off work.I am a classical freelance Doublebass player. Would love to hear if anyone else has this experience.

Had my ablation Friday.
I had my cardiac ablation on Friday 30/8/24 general aneasthetic and home yesterday. Chest a bit sore but not too bad and most of all AF is gone although still some ectopics. I know its early days though the EP did say he had identified the AF locations and is confident he has ablated them. He told me

Lung hyperinflation and trying to exercise
Hi all, Since I had a Cardiac ablation in 2022, I have struggled with not being able to exert myself on exercise. Just recently confirmed moderate hyperinflation, with an 'unfurled pulmonary aorta '. Did not have breathing issues before the ablation. Would appreciate hearing from anyone who may have

cardiac ablation
Hello: Has anyone had a cardiac ablation. If so, has this remedied the paroxysmal AFib and have you been able to get off blood thinners and beta blockers ?

side effects of Sotalol
I had cardiac ablation for AFib and was put on Sotalol to help keep my heart in normal sinus rhythm. I have had unpleasant side effects, one of which was numbness in my feet, legs and tingling in my fingers. I also have nausea almost all the time. I told by the medical community that numbness isn’

Cardiac Ablation Recovery for AVRT
Hey all! I'd like to see if anyone can weigh in on what I am going through here... I'm a healthy 38 y/o male who got SVT suddenly in September 2021. It initially came on several hours after playing hockey, but then happened sporadically with triggers besides exercise. It would last anywhere from a few

I have found the Therapulse device to be very effective in managing my RLS. I had a cardiac ablation for atrial fibrillation last week and am now in the three month recovery period, just easing back into normal life, and trying to avoid any triggers for AF.

Mitral Valve Regurgitation & Tricuspid Regurgitation
Hi All, New to the forum, so hello! I just wanted a little advice & reassurance really. I had cardiac ablation for WPW following an episode of SVT a few years ago and had no cardiac issues following that.

How soon to resume taper after cardiac ablation?
I was on 7mg prednisone, easing into 6.75, when I had my cardiac ablation on April 15. Went back to 7 mg however, upped it with cardiac inflammation, 5 mgs for 5 days and resumed 7. Then I developed a chest cold with fever and put on abx. Used sick day rules and now back to 7. It takes 3 months for

Second cardiac ablation attempt
Hi there, I am a 31M fit and healthy and suffer from a high frequency of left ventricle premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) with a ~18% burden. They are coming from a small area near the LF papillary muscle . I had an ablation under a very skilled EP in London who successfully ablated the problematic

cardiac ablation good experience
hi everyone, I have just had my cardiac catheter ablation for my ventricular ectopic beats ( I have a very high ectopic load) It has gone well and I was really well looked after by the team . In case anyone is waiting for their ablation thought it might be helpful to share my experience. In my case

Ablation 3 weeks ago.
Female 65. I had a cardiac ablation on 16 Jan 2024. It was the worse thing I ever gone through. I felt everything and told the consultant. He said I had a low pain threshold. The nurse in the ward congratulated me for not requiring much medication! ( I have done fire walks with less pain) I was totally

Heart Issues post Ivor Lewis
Hi, wondering if any of you that have had the Ivor Lewis surgery have had heart issues post surgery? At 3 years post surgery I started having atrial fibralation. Now 5 years post surgery and the afib is worse but I also have Braychardia ( very low heart rate) Looks like I will need a cardiac ablation

Atrioesophageal fistula (AEF)
Heads up to those undergoing cardiac ablation for Afib…had my ablation 12/6/23. Everything went great! Been in normal rhythm ever since! No bleeding, no hematoma, no real discomfort. However I woke up to abdominal pain, pain between shoulder blades and sore throat. 3 nights post op woke up to a burning

Treatment Preferences in Patients with Hypothyroidism: an Analysis of Eleven Randomized Controlled Trials
I have only read this abstract - once, and very quickly - hence no real comments. But patients preferring combination treatment is hardly a surprise. We'd probably prefer our own nicely working thyroid - which would be producing T4 and T3. Wouldn't it? [i]Treatment Preferences in Patients with Hypothyroidism
