Cardioversion
Why would someone be classed as unfit for
cardioversion
I had one in July 2018 it only lasted 2 days . Has anyone else experienced this, I have never seen my cardiologist at clinic just the specialist nurse but never dared to ask why

My
cardioversion
is scheduled for Tuesday. I was told it's pretty successful but many people revert back to a-fib shortly after? is that the case for most of you?

post cardioversion
Had a successful
cardioversion
two days ago. Was pleased it worked but don’t feel any different. Still tired and breathless. Feeling a bit deflated. Is this usual?

UPDATE + CONCERN RE AMIODARONE
The plan is that I go on Amiodarone for 2-3 months and then we do a DC
Cardioversion
and get me back into sinus. Tonight I decided to have a read up on amiodarone and found an article claiming that it increased the risk of developing cancer in males, so I’m naturally concerned.

New Afib Diagnosis
They immediately diagnosed afib and debated whether to try a
cardioversion
on me but started me on bisoprolol which did bring my rate down within a couple of hours. In the end they sent me home with no further treatment, but a prescription of 2.5mg bisoprolol daily.

Post cardioversion fluid
My husband had successful
cardioversion
on Tuesday but weight went up by 4lb by Thursday morning we are guessing it’s to do with the extra hours lying on a bed and no activity that day, not much the next. Extra Furosemide yesterday has shifted 2lb and doing the same today.

An update from Norfolk
Brief re-cap, Flutter last August (at 62 years of age) Ablation three weeks later which worked but triggered off Fibrillation which was stopped with
Cardioversion
two weeks later. Bisoprolol and Rivaroxaban originally followed by Flecainide and Rivaroxaban up to late December.

Follow up appointment with Cardiologist
Hi, just wondering how long most people are having to wait for a follow-up after a second
cardioversion
? Here in the East Midlands, I was told that I would be seen after 4 months. The
Cardioversion
took place the middle of September.

Last chance saloon?
Now I've had numerous tests etc & am going for
cardioversion

Rivaroxaban
I was told to take Rivaroxaban 20mg for 3 weeks before and 3 weeks after my
cardioversion
. My GP said I can just come straight off the Rivaroxaban after this time and it will be out of my system in 24 hours.

Cardioversion
I'm after some advice, as the wife of someone that had a
cardioversion
on Friday evening. It was a complete success and he came home with no medication, great BP, no sign of any heart problems and a normal heart rate, but the physiological effects have been huge.
