Cardioversion
Three hours after a
cardioversion
and all good so far, cross me fingers tightly, keeping me maintained on sotalol for six weeks to hopefully, give it time to remember the rhythm.

Cardioversion and PVCs and PACs
I’m considering a
cardioversion
as I’m to the point I will try anything to get my heart back into NSR but wondering if anyone here has had a
cardioversion
for arrhythmias other then Afid and if so, did it help?

How long do people take to feel ‘normal’ after a
cardioversion
? I will be driving for a good few hours for each break away and wonder how long should I wait after my
cardioversion
before driving long distances. Thanks in advance for any advice.

cardioversion
hi, I had my first
Cardioversion
at St Richards Chichester on 11th March. (First diagnosed early January but probably been in AF since Sept) It worked initially but reverted to AF very shortly after.

amiodorone first time
had successful
cardioversion
which lasted almost 2 years with the aid of flecainide ~ now back in AF and
cardioversion
arranged but amiodorone is to be used beforehand- I’m very put off by the side affects of this drug - am I over re- acting ?

DC Cardioversion
So, good people, I would appreciate any feedback from those who have had DC
Cardioversion
. What was the whole experience like? Did it stop your AF? If so, for how long? Was it worth it? Thank you. I really appreciate it

First Cardioversion
Taking Edoxoban for last few months and they have advised I come off beta blocker the day before so heart rate doesn’t go too low after the
cardioversion
. Thanks Update- I had my
cardioversion
yesterday. I was really emotional walking to the Cath lab but everyone put me at ease.

Cardioversion
My cardiologist says that I should have a
cardioversion
as my heart has 4 second pauses. He says that the pauses are nothing to worry about at below 6 seconds. Do any of you have pauses like this?

Post cardioversion
Hubby had his
cardioversion
yesterday. One zap and it worked, he felt tired but fine. Forward to today and his pulse is 40-47. If he walks round the house and does something it goes up to 65-70. He says it doesn't feel right but not sure if he should contact cardio department. Any help please?

can I fly less than a week after a cardioversion
I have been given a date for a
cardioversion
,which I’m really happy about but we will be flying to Majorca 5 days later. Should I ask to postpone the
cardioversion
or will it be ok?

post cardioversion stuff
Five days in NSR after
cardioversion
is a hopeful sign for me. (3 ablations and 4 cardioversions). But today Im gettting ectopic beats. I know we’re not supposed to think they mean anything but of course Im worried its a sign of the
cardioversion
about to fail. any hints on calming them?

flecainide versus amiodorone
I had a successful
cardioversion
using flecainide before and after that lasted 2 years but now AF has returned- I will have another
cardioversion
but because of my age ( 80) the hospital want me to use amiodorone instead - I wasn’t happy with this suggestion due to the toxic side effects of amiodorone

What is a cardioversion?
If you have AF you may have been offered a
cardioversion
, but may be unsure of what to expect? A
is a procedure to convert your heart from AF back into normal (sinus) rhythm.

AFIB caused heart failure?
I'm just trying to find some reason to give her hope that she will feel better once the
cardioversion
is done and her heart is back in a normal rhythm again.

Treatment Options
In December, 2023 went into Afib and had
cardioversion
which lasted until mid January, 2024. Went back into Afib Jan 15/24, tried Flecainide and 2nd
cardioversion
2 days ago, which failed. Are there other treatment options to get out of Afib ?
