Ectopics and exercise
However in January 2020 (age 28) I had afib episode (following an extended period of drinking alcohol over christmas and new year) that needed electrical
cardioversion
. No episodes since, but periods of worse ectopics which sometimes correlate with being ill (cold/flu).

Question for Cardioversion Patients
Purpose in asking is though
cardioversion
often returns, does it improve symptoms (lower heart rate, feeling tired, etc) I realize this may depend on individual circumstances and medication given after
cardioversion
. Thanks !

Flecainide x 2wks now put me in flutter. EP says means better chance of next cardioversion sticking this time. Anyone else similar
Last
cardioversion
lasted 4 days, 3 weeks ago. Hope is to keep me on Flecainide 100mg BD. Also on the list for a 2nd ablation. Be interested in your thoughts and experiences ?

Awaiting Cardioversion for Afib and views sought on best treatment thereafter.
I’m assuming that’s to aid the success of the
cardioversion
which I’ll be having a couple of weeks later. My concerns are (1) that being in Afib for a number of weeks might mean I’m less likely to recover NSR after
cardioversion
? (2) what side effects the flecainade will have on me?

A fib now a flutter
Going for another
cardioversion
. Did the flecainide pip cause the flutter ? If I would have had an ablation would this have happened anyway with it being from the right atrium vs the left atrium? Now on metoprolol 25 mg with resting heart rate upper 40s . any thoughts?

What is the success rate of an Ablation?
I have had a
cardioversion
, lasted a week. Now on a chemical
cardioversion
that does not seem to be working either. Life is not bad so far as long as I take it easier than I am used to! Light headed and feel awful when I push the boundaries.

From fit to fed up and feel like a failure….
Been a long time since my last post ……have gone through a CBT course ,which helped me to think a little more positively for a while, but having always been a glass full rather than half empty person …..hasn’t in the longer term made much if any difference . Have had 3 cardioversions plus 1 ablation

Moscow Ablation / Purpose of Second Cardioversion
This begs the question, if you feel better after your first
cardioversion
why do the NHS insist on a second before giving an ablation? Thanks in advance for any answers.

Cardioversion - shock setting
Is there any evidence that the harder it is for a
cardioversion
to shock the heart back into normal rhythm ( requiring a higher shock setting) then the more likely it is to stay in that normal rhythm?

Might give someone hope…
He was placed on 8 different types of medication and had
cardioversion
. 6 months later he has been for another echocardiogram and in his follow up cardiologist appointment yesterday we got some fantastic news. He is now sitting around 50% EF and his heart is still in sinus rhythm.

StartedFlecainide yesterday. No changes yet Suggesting another Defib cardioversion so Flecainide might maintain NSR Anyone else similar ?
Cardioversion
worked for 4 days. Started 50mg Flecainide BD yesterday. Higher from next week. They're saying another
Cardioversion
in Nov, so guess they're not expecting the Flecainide to put me back in NSR. Has anyone else had this treatment like this and it worked ?

Raised Heart Rate on Flecainide within a week, still in Persistent AF, yet mid week looked like it was settling. Anyone else similar?
I am still in persistent AF, after a failed
cardioversion
2 weeks ago, another booked for 16th Nov, idea being the Flecainide might help to hold it this time. Have missed this morning's dose in the hope that maybe for me this was too high a dose. Just read it has a 48hr half life.

Mini Miracle
Had a
cardioversion
that lasted a week. Went on to Sotalol- kicking and screaming all the way. As of two days ago my 24/7 Afib stopped and I am in Sinus Rhythm. Dr. said it was due to Sotalol and if I stop it the Afib will return. My heart is enlarged noted from my ultrasound.
