My Catheter Ablation Experience
I had decided to go for the PVI
Catheter
Ablation
procedure and was put on a 10 month waiting list to have the procedure done under my preferred surgeon. That day came 4 days ago. I wouldn't say I was nervous on the day but aware of what might go wrong and accepted the risks. My surgeon was Dr.

Hybrid Ablation
with the

3 months later. I am very pleased with this, except for the requirement to be on amiodarone for the three months between the procedures.

3 days after Catheter Ablation - Yikes!
I feel actually pretty good except when I lie down to sleep. I can't breathe very well. This is new. I can walk and when I'm up breathing is ok, but at night I haven't slept in 2 days. Feels like small breathing space, have to effort to breathe in over and over. I know I need to rest, and that makes

New research into AF
“We have learned a lot in the last 20 years and we have tools in hand such as medication and
catheter
ablation
to treat these electrical changes, but we need to go one step beforehand to understand why someone with a certain genetic predisposition develops AF.

I am a 74 yr old female with above problems. I am taking Warfarin, Bisoprolol, Digoxin, Candesartan, Atorvastatin & Furosemide.

Post ablation fatigue
Just had a rf
catheter
ablation
for wpw and svt about 3 weeks ago, doc said it was successful and went very well and he believed I was done. Usually procedures last last 2-6 hours but mine only lasted about and hour and a half from what my partner said. It was a good experience overall.

Endometriosis pain after ablation
Hi all! I'm new here. I have not yet been diagnosed with endo, but it seems to be the only thing left that accounts for my pain/symptoms. I had endometrial ablation done a few months ago because the gynaecologist I saw recommended it for my heavy flow. Despite the numerous other symptoms (mainly pain

Doc said he will refer me for
Catheter
ablation
as I am fit and well otherwise and he feels I would be a good canditae 52 year old female , low bp, no heart disease, no diabetes, no history. At present not on blood thinners as I am scoring 1 ( because of gender) on the vaschad calculator.

What's the view out there about repeated ablations?
In 2014 I had a successful
catheter
ablation
for paroxysmal AF. I was 50 at the time and otherwise healthy. I have a ghastly suspicion the discoing frogs are back again...... what are people's opinions on having more than one ablation?

in A-F after 20 days from Catheter Ablation
I had my first
Catheter
Ablation
on the 5th January 2017. 20 days later I was in a -Fib again. I had cardioversion and back to NSR. Is that because my Ablation was not successful. No medication after Ablation, just Xeralto 20mg daily Can any one reply on this please.

Abbreviated Terms
Hi everyone hope you are all having a goodish day on Planet A F. I was encouraged to ask questions following my first post so here goes. There are a bewildering number of Abbreviated terms which I am trying to decipher as follows... PAF ,PIP, CHAD/VASC, Ventricular Rate, NOAC, PVC'S, PAC's, Ablation

I know this forum is about anemia but I have a question about polycythemia?
Okay so back in April my red blood cell counts were high 5.31(3.70-5.10). Hemoglobin 15.6, hematocrit 46.9. Doctor initially was testing for vitamin D3 deficiency. Had no idea about the red blood cell count he said everything was fine except the D3 deficiency. Now recently I just had a cardiac ablation

Ablation with 50% chance of success
Hi just back from Glasgow Royal where I saw an EP cardiologist, my usual cardiologist referred me and had suggested an AV node ablation. The EP said today that AV ablation wasn't an option due to my hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and my only option was Pulmonary ablation but due to the cardiomyopathy it

AF ablation and sinus arrythmia
I saw a cardiologist in July and he has referred me to see a EP with the view of having a
catheter
ablation
. I have the appointment to see him in March. This all seems to take so long. Meanwhile my AF episodes are like clockwork.
