How my AF started...
From September till the day of my
cardioversion
(3 wks ago).... I continued my pattern of eating and forcing myself to be sick when it became uncomfortable. While I was waiting for my
cardioversion
I promised myself that if it worked I would not ‘over eat’ again and force myself to be sick.

Help
I was on Bisoprolol and Flecainide from when I had a
cardioversion
about 14 months ago, then was told I needed an ablation although I felt great on the meds. Since the ablation last March I was told to cut down and come off both the bisoprolol and flecainide.

Three years from diagnosis
I had a successful
cardioversion
in October 2016, although it only worked for a couple of weeks. If felt marvellous while it lasted. In November 2016 I saw the cardiologist (not the EP this time).

Atrial Fibrillation and Cardioversion
Last Thursday I had a
cardioversion
and I’m back in rhythm.... I’m just so nervous now that it won’t last. Has anyone here had a
cardioversion
that’s lasted a decent amount of time? Thankyou!

Is Digoxin a high risk drug
I am very slowly recovering from an Atrial Flutter
cardioversion
6 week ago. I was then started on Digoxin 1.25 along with Rivaroxipan and reduced Bisopropolol 2.5. Doc thought the flutter was something to do with the Flecainide I started 3 months earlier.

Successful Cardioversion, but also Horror
After several months of being in constant AF, I had a successful
cardioversion
last Tuesday. The team who carried it out at my local hospital were absolutely fantastic and seemed to be having a lot of fun, so I just joined in as expected. My heart rate is now 62. Get the flags out!

Head in the sand!....
Firstly I am doing great, since my
cardioversion
I have had nothing but 'Normal' my Kardia. This is a first...im scared of getting too excited but I'm definitely on the right road. Anyway....had a lot of time to think this week. I started with the odd AF episode maybe 4 years ago.

Please help atrial flutter
After reading a lot of your posts I have seen that sometimes
cardioversion
works and sometimes it doesn’t!! Does this mean that if I go into atrial flutter again and a
Cardioversion
doesn’t work will it then become dangerous. Any help on this or experiences would be great x

Successful cardio version
My wife had a failed
cardioversion
3 weeks ago and was gutted as her body doesn’t tolerate A/F too well, we went to see our cardiologist who suggested we go private ASAP for one final go before we go down the ablation route !!

AFib came back after a year and a half...then stopped..but the symptoms didn't..
The problem is that those symptoms have not gone away ...the lightheadness , sore chest (not pain just sore chest same as before
cardioversion
). They were not there (symptoms) before the episode at Christmas 2018.

Cardioversion
I'm due for a
cardioversion
on Thursday. I've no worries about it after having one in 2017 when I collapsed in the street due to SVT. I have to go for this with the hope that it may lessen the amount of ectopics I have practically every and all day.

Waiting for an ablation
I have had a
cardioversion
but it worked for only three days. I am now on the waiting list for an ablation. The prospect of undergoing tbis procedure terrifies me. I know Im being irrational but that is how I feel.

Cheap Cardioversion:)
Had tachycardia before going to drop off my doggie at doggie overnight care. When I was leaving I got stuck in the mud and I was so concentrated on getting out of the mud I went right out of tachycardia! Has this happened to anyone else?

Control approach?
Hi I have af and had one
cardioversion
and waiting for another. Had a letter from my consultant which says if next one does not work then a rate control approach. Does anyone know what this is?

Post ablation - healing ? U wave?
Hi everyone, I am 4 1/2 months post ablation. And post cardioversions ( 2). It’s been lots of a fib a fair amount of 130+ up-and-down but in the last week I’ve seen some normal ECG. It looks like there’s three waves at times that would mean a “U” wave ? not sure what that means anyone? Can healing
