Ablate or wait?
Dear All, Following six months in AF and two cardioversions I have spent the last 11 weeks in the fabled domain of NSR, thanks to a daily dose of 2 x 50 mg flecainide. Unfortunately during the last two of these weeks I have had two bouts of AF, about 2 weeks apart one lasting about 10 hours overnight

Was in PAF but now NSR
Amidarone is being reduced weekly until 1 x 200mg so that I can have a
cardioversion
on 25th August.

All is forgiven
Having blogged a few weeks ago that I had AF with high pulse rate, I am now back in NSR after two months and won't be needing the
cardioversion
scheduled for end of August.

cardioversion

cardioversion
) i needed
cardioversion
again due to AF and atrial flutter .

It's a girl thing......
My silly dilemma is I am now preparing for my next
cardioversion
. The previous 2 have been in Cambridge and no nail varnish was allowed.

AF Trigger and possible self-cardioversion solution
Me again. Much talked about subject I know, but this evening I feel that I have got my head around what triggers me into AF. Previously I have stated that exercise triggers me. This is true, but what I have realised today is that ANYTHING that elevates my HR to a certain level (let's call it "X"), and

Cardioversion
Good afternoon everyone. I'm now 9 weeks post 2nd ablation and had my third post ablation cardio version yesterday. My question - is there a limit to how many cardio version one can have?

Atrial Tachycardia following Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation
I am 47 year old male in decent health (apart from this). In September of last year I went for an annual Blood Pressure test at my GPs. The nurse doing the test thought my heart rate was high and suggested I have an ECG. After having the ECG and visiting the hospital I was told I had persistent AF.

AF /SVT
It came back in 2015 and I've had numerous hospital admissions , many different drugs and
cardioversion
in 2016 . I'm now on dronderone but still having constant episodes of AF or SVT . My cardiologist said he doesn't suggest another ablation . But I'd like to try as this thing is driving me.

It's been a crazy few day. Hope you are all ok?
Got rushed to hospital with my heart racing... I do suffer with my heart and on medication already. I had to have six Cardioversions (shocks) and seem to be doing a lot better but yesterday all I did was sleep. I hope you are all well as we can be?

Ablation and cardioversion in the same op
But since it needed a
cardioversion
to complete it, was it really a success?

A funny thing happened when I stopped my Beta blocker.
My Afib was always well controlled and I never needed
cardioversion
. In fact, I usually didn't even feel it much, but confirmed it with my Kardia monitor. The PVC/PAC episodes on the other hand were quite pronounced and frequent.
