Cryoablation for my Afib
Just wanted to say thanks for all the posts. I am 42 would say healthy. Started having Afib in Dec of 2020. Had 2 cardioversions in Dec and Jan which only kept me in rhythm for like 3 days each. Just had the Cryoablation this past Monday. Used general anesthesia and seemed like a non event. Recovery

Paf or paroxysmal ?
I was diagnosed with paf 2019, was going along the route of
cardioversion
but suddenly went into NSR the week before ! (Lasted approx a week). Hospital started looking at further tests for possible paroxysmal rather than persistent. Now back in AF, currently on 5th week!

Sotalol
Had a
cardioversion
last Thursday, but it only lasted for 2 days so back into hospital and had anothercardioversion. My question is I was stopped with my bisoprolol and put on sotalol. I looked on the knternetanditwas lassoed side by side with amiadrone and I’ve heard bad reports on these.

AF and cold water swimming
It's mentioned a
cardioversion
shock brings the heart back to normal, ( I've had one in the past) but do you think the shock of cold water would do the same? Thank you.

I was prescribed Ramipril, Bisoprolol and Atorvastatin, together with Warfarin (all of which I am still taking), but continued to suffer episodes and after again being hospitalised with a heart rate of 250-270 bpm I underwent a
cardioversion
.

Last electro cardioversion
I’m in hospital about to have my 3rd and I’m told final electro
cardioversion
. If it works, I will at some point ( days/months) have an af episode which will not self convert and the hospital will take no further action other than to reduce my heart rate. I am too heavy for an ablation.

Triggers for Afib
I’m new to this game and after
cardioversion
last Friday resulting in NSR but with premature atrial beats which can mean I could flip back soon I’m trying to be very careful. Would a pudding be a trigger too? Thank you 😊

Is this persistent af?
I know that I have not other issues except heart electrical ones, but this time I will be sent home with rate control rather than any kind of
cardioversion
, although they are currently struggling to get my rate down - it is around 120 bpm. I am so frustrated.

How long after ablation before one can go off rate and rhythm control drugs?
Had cryoballoon ablation, two RF ablations, three cardioversions and STILL on metoprolol (50mg 2x/day) and flecainide (100mg 2x/day). Nice NSR in 45-60 range now. Very active, healthy eating, BMI under 25, alcohol free, one cup tea/day. IF (big if), ablations are “successful “ then when do I get to go

Newly diagnosed with AFIB. Very stressed out and scared!
I thought they'd give me some kind of drug, or do a
cardioversion
or SOMETHING. I really felt like I was about to die both times I was in the hospital, and even now I want to cry knowing that I now live with this at a young age and will deal with it forever.

AF is back.
Am very apprehensive about the possibility of permanent AF and the prospect of having a
cardioversion
or even a visit to A and E during COVID.

It is throwing my spine out due to weight of fluid which has triggered back spasms (I also have a spinal cord injury) My arrythmia nurse wants me to stay out of hospital unless I really cannot breathe at all; has prescribed water tablets and I have a
cardioversion
appointment on 15th Dec.
