cardioversion. - I felt and remember it! đ”âđ«đź
Had first cardioversion this past Thursday. Fairly sure I am not supposed to remember the shock and pain from the shock. It hurt so bad I tensed up, pulled a muscle in my back and bit my tongue which was bleeding when I woke up. It was one of those weird twilight zone experiences where the intensity

What is an ablasion procedure is it safe?
Diagnosed with AFIB, cardiologist has suggested for me to look into ablasion proceedure. Taking Eliquis but an expensive drug to be on. Research shows this proceedure with ablasion only 70% successful to put heart back in a normal rhythem? Has anyone had this proceedure done?

Depressing cardiology consultation
I am a 73 year old female and I have had AFib for 12 years. My problem is with rhythm, not rate. Just had a cardiology consult after going back into AFib after 18 months on Amiodarone, following my second cardioversion. Quite depressing really. Told to come off the Amiodarone, as it wasn't keeping

residential advice for anxiety, trauma, ocd but no substance abuse
Seeking a place for 22 year old daughter. Deciding between different places, but OCDI Texas one of them. She also has trauma, body dysmorphia and depressed a bit. Recent dx of OCD, actually. We always treated the anxiety, so not sure if her OCD is bad enough. (We live near Boston so we know McLean).

Warfarin and Acetaminophen ? Are there any interaction please ?!
Hello, I'm just wondering which pain medications would not interact with Warfarin please? I know anti-inflammatories are not ok. What about Panadol (Acetaminophen/Paracetamol), is this okay to take while being on Warfarin? Appreciate any information you can provide, Many thanks Rosegardens

A new experience!
Well Iâm baffled! I had my third cardioversion (alter 4 âfailedâ ablations) a week ago today. I then enjoyed 4 days of NSR but on Sunday evening, my Kardia suddenly told me that the arrythmia had returned. Disappointment yet again! My heart rate had gone up to 125+ bpm and I was registering Possible

Persistent and Permanent Atrial Fibrillation
Approximately one month ago I introduced myself to this forum. I greatly appreciated the warm welcome and the helpful responses I received to my post. I've returned with hopes of receiving some feedback from any members who have persistent or permanent Afib. I believe I've done as much research as

3 years post successful PVI RF Ablation
Had my three year check up, ECG, Holter monitor, PM diagnostic, echo and full bloods.All good. No AFIB since ablation. BP good. PM has many years left. Only meds 15mg zarelto and 40mg micardis. Still have not got back to as much energy as I would like, maybe just getting old.

changeover to Dronedarone
Diagnosed with paroxysmal AFib in 2022, on 2.5 mcg Bisoprolol only until last week. Had only few AFib episodes( 4 in a year) and found beta blocker increasingly difficult to tolerate, especially nausea. Saw an EP cardiologist last Monday who suggested to stop my Bisoprolol , take nothing for 24 hours

177Lu-PSMA clinical trials for chemo naive patients
We are in India and I know ppl here have been getting lu pre chemo. My MO offers 177Lu-PSMA therapy too, however he has suggested we get chemo first and then lu if required. (case details in my profile) He mentioned that it has only been trialed in that sequence and not on chemo naive patients.

Flecainide (again)
Very interesting post by FraserB earlier. My problem is the opposite. Cardiologist raised my dose to 100mg x2 per day after being on 50mg x2 per day for a year and a half. After the third dose of the 100mg 2 hours before bed I felt terrible. The 2nd dose in morning I felt good with no reaction. Was worried

Eliquis and AF symptoms
Hi all, I've been following the posts on this forum and have received helpful feedback re blood thinners and AF. I was recently diagnosed with AF and was put on Eliquis, which I've not yet started because of what I heard about the side effects. I have bradycardia and experience flutters and lightheadedness
