PVCs post cardioversion
Been in hospital since I left home after a
cardioversion
that put me in nsr but with multiple PVCs and going in and out of Afib which resulted in me being taken by ambulance with fluid overload on lungs and heart. Still in on a monitor and waiting on next move as don’t feel good like this.

Your thoughts/experiences please about a change to a high dose of Sotalol (120mg twice a day).
After 90 mins I was still in AF so they prepared me for a
cardioversion
. Either the process of hooking me up, or the increased Sotalol, put me back in NSR so they did not have to give me a zap.

Stay in the hospital for Tikosyn dosage
Did you have to have
cardioversion
during your stay? Is it scarry? Just dreading it not knowing what to expect.

Amiodarone
I was diagnosed with Afib in February and in preparation for
Cardioversion
my consultant has written requesting that I take Amiodarone “for a short period” but that I should be aware of “a low possibility of liver or thyroid side effects and pulmonary fibrosis” It sounds like one of those good news/

New NHS Decision Aid for AF
The document makes no mention at all of
Cardioversion
, as if it is no longer a treatment offered by the NHS. 2. On page 2 in the "Do Nothing" box, bottom left, it asks "Is this an option for you?" and asks you to "Tick the relevant box". But Box 1 (Yes) is already ticked.

Ablation for goddaughter at last.
Some of you may remember my god daughter has been awaiting ablation for SVT since she was 3 years old. She has been on Flecanide 200mg a day since then and has had 5 cardioversions. Always planned for when she was 12 and correct weight. At last it came around last month,but was cancelled at 2pm due

Third episode of persistent AF in 6 months
I had a successful
cardioversion
on Christmas eve and then another one just 4 weeks ago. Gutted because I went into persistent AF again yesterday. I take Edoxaban and have tried to take Flecainide but it makes me dizzy and very sick.

Cyclist and Runner Exercising with Persistent Atrial Fibrillation - also considering an ablation
reasonably fit and very active person in my early sixties, I unfortunately had a heart attack in April this year (NSTEMI) which luckily has not left me with any significant damage, but not so luckily a week later (presumably related) I went into AF which has now become persistent, including after a
cardioversion

Atrial Tachycardia
After two temporarily successful cardioversions (6 months af free each time) I had an ablation in May and all seemed to be going well. I remained happily in sinus rhythm for over three months until suddenly, out of the blue, my heart rate and blood pressure rocketed and I ended up in the Resus Department

Reactions to Flecainide and Amiodarone?
It returned several months after my first
cardioversion
, and hasn’t stopped except for a second
cardioversion
which lasted only three or four days.

Had an ablation in February and everything was great until....
The Dr had to do a
cardioversion
just to get it back into rhythm & was in the hospital for 30 hrs. Dr prescribed Eliquis & Amiodarone to keep it in rhythm & protect from blood clots. Had the ablation in February, had 3 months of Afib then everything was great....until I had a kidney stone.

Arial Fibrillation and Cardioversion
I am again in AF and waiting to see a consultant hopefully for another
Cardioversion
I am writing this because mainly the posts seem to be of people who have had ablation rather than
cardioversion
. I appreciate that if the latter does not work one would have to have an ablation.
