When to call doctor
I had a
cardioversion
and was prescribed Eliqiuis and propofenone (a heart rhythm regulator). I had no problems until I drank a little too much wine at a wedding . Now, my heart rate is somewhat erratic and can jump to 160 periodically. It has been like this for two days.

Post ablation issue
Had my first cryoablation yesterday at Papworth (including a
cardioversion
just to top it off). All went well, apart from voice being a bit croaky afterwards (no intubation) and slight crackle in lung starting. Returned home, went to bed, good sleep but crackles getting worse overnight.

Ablation or Not?
I felt much better immediately after the
cardioversion
and in normal sinus rhythm, but when the AF returned, I noticed that it was slightly different.

Cardioversion experience
Mine is due soon. Would really appreciate some feedback on forum members actual experience both on the day and the the following couple of weeks. Would also be good to know who had new medication straight away afterwards to try and make the procedure successful. Thanks for any contributions.

cardioversion
I am due to have cardio version and the doctor says that the risk of stroke increases after the procedure. I would welcome any more information on the risks so I can make a decision

Post AVR 3 & 1/2 weeks, Atrial Fibrillation
I understand that I may need a
Cardioversion
. Last few days I have an erratic pulse rate too, Dr’s appointment on Monday apparently may increase Bisoprolol, as presently on very low dose.

Angiogram plus possible angioplasty vs CT Angiogram
Failed
cardioversion
recently. Ablation or drug assisted
cardioversion
next step. However, next stage is angiogram plus possible angioplasty in April. I’m grateful for treatment of course and very wary of questioning NHS support.

New here saying hello!
Following an echocardiogram (normal) a 24 hour ECG (not normal - mean HR 118 peaking at 140 and in AF most of the time) and a CT angiogram (still awaiting results) I am waiting for a
cardioversion
procedure. I feel incredibly tired and nervous abut the whole thing.

can you have an ablation while in AF?
It reverted six days after the last
cardioversion
? Will I have to be in normal sinus with them to have an ablation , or will they carry out if I’m in AF with an irregular?

Post ablation concerns part 2
The hospital did an ECG on Monday then called on Wednesday to say for me to restart the Amiodorone which was stopped after the ablation & they would put me on an urgent list for a 3rd
cardioversion
.

cardioversion and Flecainide
An update - I had my
cardioversion
privately a week ago - all good, so far….. I feel so much better. HR now around 55-60 instead of 90-100 ( on high dose drugs) I was immediately taken off Digoxin and told to continue the BB Nebivolol 10mg a day.

Still in AF 25 days post ablation.. do I take Amiodarone?
I'm headed for a
cardioversion
in the next couple of months and the arrhythmia nurse has asked my GP to prescribe amiodarone. I've been on amiodarone before, for 12 months, in the run up to and after a successful
cardioversion
.

2nd Ablation woes
Spoke to Arrythmia nurse and she advised this is quite common and I might need a
cardioversion
in 6 weeks after healing. I feel so disappointed had a lovely week and a half of feeling good now it feels I’m back to square one feeling so down. Anyone else had this at all?

ectopics or extra beats.
I have twice in the past converted to persistent AF which has been sorted both times by
cardioversion
. However yesterday for the entire day my heart felt like it was having a disco. Ectopics, extra beats, early or skipped beats…..whatever! Should I be worried?
