CRT Pacemaker and AV Ablation
After four lots of
Cardioversion
, two lots of Catheter Ablation and multiple meds, which are either ineffective or make me feel 'strange', I have been listed to have a Cardiac Resynchronisation Therapy Pacemaker fitted, followed by AV Ablation.

Verapamil v Bisoprolol
I have been on Bisoprolol for years . A few months ago the dosage was increased to 10mg in order to bring my heart rate down to under 100 bpm. I have persistent AF and after lots of cardioversions and 2 ablations the cardiologist says the only option left is rate control since he doesn’t recommend ablate

Titrating down from Amiodarone
After angiogram established there were no blockages a
cardioversion
was arranged to see if NSR was possible and Amiodarone started 2 weeks prior to the CV - which failed to establish NSR after 3 attempts. Well one attempt did work - for 7 seconds.

Positive covid test with AF
I had a
cardioversion
in November which lasted a day or so. Cardiologist has put me on amiodorone ready for another CV. I have now tested positive for covid 19 . I have no idea how I got it as I only see my husband & son who have tested negative?

Day 1 following Cardioversion
My
cardioversion
yesterday went well and you were all right about it being nothing to worry about. I have slight burns but absolutely nothing to worry about.

Still Breathless
I hade an unsuccessful
cardioversion

Deflated!
I asked for another
cardioversion
as I’m now treated for sleep apnea to be told that’s probably pointless.( had one last year) It’s just so deflating guess my AF is here to stay and while I’m used to it now I just lived in the hope I could have had something to make it better.

Bisoprolol side effects?!
Cardioversion
after each. No recurrence in last 8 months. On apixaban for last 12 months. No side effects that I'm aware of. On Bisoloprol 1.25mg per day and Flecanide 100mg per day after second
cardioversion
last April. Much less energy than before taking these. Headaches weekly. Aches and pains.

Medication side effects
After a five day spell of NSR following a
cardioversion
I went back into afib and was referred for ablation, which I’m currently waiting for, and given Amiodorone to take. Since then I’ve experienced tingling/numbness in my left hand and foot and also pain in my calf.

Exercise is the Best medicine
I’m in permanent AFib, having been in SR for 4 months after my 3rd
Cardioversion
. However I’m now walking 4 to 5 miles most every day. It took a while to build up to this, but so worth it now. I go out in the morning, because it makes me feel energised for the rest of the day.

Pinching pain in chest
I have permanent AF and am awaiting
cardioversion
. Every now and again I feel a pinching/slight burning pain in my upper chest (much higher than my heart). I think it began when I had my flu jab - it was literally 10 mins after I had it and lasted a couple of days.

Short bouts of nsr
I was in persistent Afib after pneumonia for four months with flutter then had a
cardioversion
that lasted for two weeks. Had it confirmed by docs back into Afib but over last to weeks have noticed my heart rate variability was low and no arrhythmia sign on both machine and a regular pulse.
