Cardioversion of Atrial Fibrillation (AF)
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common rhythm disturbance of the heart which may cause rapid irregular palpitations, chest pain, breathlessness or fatigue. Sometimes it is hardly noticed by the patient. In such cases it is often picked up by routine examination of the pulse listening to the heart or recording

Unsure what to do
I’ve been having dizzy spells since 2022. When my doctor was on vocation in March 2023 he took to the lowest dose from 75 mg twice a day to 25 mg once a day of Metroprolol. The pharmacist helped me to to come down to the lowest dose 25 mg once a day. Since I have been having Afib issues, Just not feeling

Heart rate increase
Over time, my NSR events have lessened and been replaced by SVEs most of the time - so my Kardia tells me. I have felt ok physically with this as when I told my GP, he said it only really mattered if the rate went up considerably, and as it is always below 70, ( usually around low 60s ) he was happy.

What is post ablation normal heart rate
I had my ablation last week for a fib which I have been told was a success. I have felt very dizzy with occasional ectopics since but bp has been ok and heart rate between 72 and 78. Then today everything has changed. Lots of ectopics and resting heart rate between 95 and 98. Should I be worried?

Pace and Ablate
I am scheduled for a pace and ablate procedure in October. I've been on multiple rhythm control drugs which sooner or later failed, including Tikosyn, had multiple cardiofversions, and one ablation which failed, I'm told because of my huge left atrium; so I wasn't offered any more ablations. All of

permanent afib
My husband is in permanent AF, he has seen a doctor who didn’t seem worried , but told him to have an ECG. Unfortunately their ECG machine isn’t working and he has now been waiting four weeks for one. Should he be worried, he seems ok in himself. Every one here is so supportive I would like to hear

Atrial Fibrilation & Exercise
Hello! I just wanted to share my story here. I'm in my mid-40s and have had paroxysmal Atrial Fibrilation since early 30s. When I get AF, it never goes away on it's own. The only thing I know which gets it back to sinus rhythm is strenuous exercise. Either a run, jog, or brisk hillwalking- something

3% Afib burden and proposed medication
UPDATE: I saw an EP today. He advised that, unless I had a pacemaker implanted, medicinal control of my afib was too dangerous because of my already low heart rate. He also went over results from the 30 day monitor and the only time my heart rate went up to 170 bpm was when I was exercising while
