Still Breathless
I hade an unsuccessful
cardioversion
in August 2020 and an ablation in October and found this forum very helpful. It is now 3 months since the ablation and I am in SR with some ectopics.

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.

Hospitals (England)
Hi, do any of you know which hospitals in England are meant to be the best for cardiology - specifically ablations? I’m with Blackpool hospital and have had six or seven cardioversions and two ablations since I started with persistent AF in 2013. Nothing’s worked for long. One ablation lasted 4 months

That will teach me to be so smug...
However had a dream my consultant was doing a
cardioversion
via my iPad. Woke up and just approaching 4.00 am and back in SR. Was it the medication or was it the dream 😂 AF really is the “gift” that just keeps on giving, one can never relax and think its gone away.

Been back in hospital
Hi everyone just thought I would give u an update. I’v been back hospital with my Afib. I’m back home and I’v Cardioverted myself. I’m feeling really rough I’m holding onto a lot of fluid in my abdomen. I feel constantly nauseous and have no appetite. I need to ring my cardiologist when I go back into

Magnesium for breakfast!
I thought I’d wait before I tried it because I was due a
cardioversion
. (Which only worked for three days). I have now taken 375mg for the last three days and it’s brilliant!

Feeling a little lost.
Has
cardioversion
worked for you. I’m hoping the
cardioversion
works. Does anyone know that by having to wait possibly up to 6 months maybe longer for one if my heart will keep deteriorating and it’s less likely to work.

Persistent AF and keeping your job.
Hello again. I still have PAF but am on the cusp of it becoming persistent. I have been told no more cardioversions. Over the years I have had to change my jobs because of AF - I’m now self employed as a gardener, I run my house as a “b and b” and we are self sufficient in veg at home thanks to my veggie

Flecainide and Cardioversion?
My EP tried a
cardioversion
on 1 October which he was fairly sure would get me back into sinus rhythm (SR) but despite 3 attempts SR was only achieved for a few seconds. I am taking Rivaroxaban and also 2.5mg Bisoprolol daily.
