Pace and ablate for atrial tachycardia?
The evidence here and elsewhere suggests that pace and ablate comprises a good option for many of those folks in later life who have very symptomatic persistent/permanent AF and for whom
cardioversion
no longer works.

Uncertain about Amiodarone and cardioversion
Looking forward to hearing from anybody who has the
cardioversion
that has successfully cured AF; where they went for treatment and any other tips. Many thanks.

cyroablation yesterday...
When I got home grabbed my Kardia and sure enough "possible atrial fibrillation", scheduled a second
cardioversion
for April10, on table, hooked up, in and out of afib...of course doc says
cardioversion
won't do any good, went home with scheduled cryoablation May 03, 2023.

Back from EP after Cardioversion Failure
Now EP wants to try another
Cardioversion
in conjunction with amiodarone . I am concerned because I already have neuropathy in feet and fingers and I have read this medicine can worsen that. Anyone with experience with it?

AF and statins
I had
cardioversion
and was put on blood thinners and BP meds. In the last few months it has returned as PAF. My ECG watch goes red every other day for hours or days. It can come on its own or be triggered by exercise.

Experience of ablation for persistent AF?
So while I wait they’re trying a holding operation - amiodorone with a second
cardioversion
coming up in 2 weeks time.

Post Ablation breathlessness
Hi, My husband suffers from persistent AF. He had an ablation on 30th April. He has recovered really well and is back doing his part time job. From what I have read on this forum he is doing a lot better than some and I keep saying to him that his heart is still recovering from the procedure, but

Flecainide weird side effects
I’m taking flecainide to prepare for the
cardioversion
. I’m in persistent afib with heart rate rage usually 70-90. I started to take 50mg yesterday for two times a day and I felt straight away hot, pins and needles in my hands and feet.

Withdrawal from Bisoprolol
Hi, My husband was in permanent AF, he has now had 2 Cardioversions, the first lasted for 6 weeks and the second which he had in February combined with being prescribed Amiodarone is currently still holding him in NSR. We have been told they are unlikely to work long term as his heart is dilated due

Hello, my husband suffers with AF and after 3 failed cardioversions last year, he had an ablation yesterday though the chest. He was in theatre for a few hours and he is still in absolute agony in his chest, shoulders and back and can not move. Hes in hospital and they’re giving him painkillers, but

Alive, with thanks: update on nightmare
He may want me to go in for
cardioversion
, depending on whether I'm still in fib. In the meantime I'm managing with metoprolol twice a day as a baseline, to be increased if needed.

Throwing up triggers AFIB
I was officially diagnosed with having a fib just a few months after my son was born in 2018. I believe I may have experienced this as a child growing up and didn’t know what was happening. I have ONLY had afib episodes after I’ve throw up. I have converted back several times with taking metoprolol
