May the Fourth be with me!
Headed to my fourth ablation today after many deliberations. Cardioversion took care of an atrial tachycardia episode back in February. Per EP’s instructions, came off metoprolol and flecainide four days prior to today … and amazingly no Afib or flutter. In fact, feeling quite well. So wondering if I

AFib, Post Ablation, & Sex
I haven't seen this topic here and I don't know if it's within the guidelines but here goes: What relationship have folks here experienced between sex, Afib, and the post-Ablation period? When my Afib started, there was some correlation between having episodes after having had sex. Apparently, sexual

Questioning everything
This is mostly a venting so I apologize, I just need to get some things out of my head. I have been diagnosed with atrial fibrillation. I've definitively and repeatedly connected it to my digestive system. In my most recent encounter with a doctor directly after I had been taken via ambulance to

apple watch 7
I just bought an Apple watch 7. The ECG shows that I am in sinus rhythm and sometimes AFIB. Majority is in Sinus rhythm. I do have afib and a stroke last December. I have changed my lifestyle and diet and lost so far 25lbs and got another 18 to go to my ideal BMI. Does the fact that the Apple watch

Atrial Flutter corrected in time to prevent more serious heart problems
While I was seeing my VA Oncologist during a scheduled appointment, he and my wife noticed that I was not being as responsive to my surroundings as normal. He listened to my heart through a stethoscope and then took me into another room across the hall for an EKG, where it was discovered that I was

Amiodarone after ablation
I am four week post ablation. A week afterward, I had an afib episode that had to be treated with cardioversion even though I was taking 120 mg of TR diltiazem. A second episode began a week later and they told me to start 200 mg of amiodarone, which has big side effects on many and takes six months

INR problems
On Warfarin for 5 years still I broke my ankle followed by DVT. My INR level should be between 2.0 & 3.0 but has been erratic sometimes too and sometimes too low. I had a Total Gastrectomy 30 years ago and was wondering if malabsorption is causing the problem.

10 days afib now finished HR too low?
After 10 days of seeing heart rate mainly over 100 but zooming up and down, it is now on the 50s and little energy to move. Presumable the Bisoprolol working too well. Is this normal? I am not faint or dizzy

Hi everyone- first time poster. I’m a healthy 53 yo Male with a background in competitive cycling. I had my first episode of AF about 2 yrs ago and was cardioverted at the hospital.

Cancer again
Has anyone gotten a secondary cancer while on W & W ? I had breast cancer two years ago and had a lumpectomy with no chemo or radiation. My cancer is now back in same breast. Thinking of a mastectomy this time but still concerned that the CLL might be an underlying cause. Any comments would be very

Sotalol &high blood pressure medicine
Is anyone on sotalol and high blood pressure medicine at the same time? My blood pressure is to high then to low, the GP is trying different medicine and dosages to see what works. I know it can take a bit of time to get the right meds to work. Thank you

Amiodarone as pill in pocket
I take Flecainide 150mg, Bisoprolol 1.25 and Xarelto 20mg every morning and this regime usually keeps me free from Afib episodes and able to lead an active life. However, about once a month my heartbeat becomes irregular and is often over 100, at these times my BP plummets My Cardiologist says when

Second Day Out From Cryoablation with Migraines and Afib Episodes
Had my first cryoablation the day before yesterday and on my second day at home. As others have shared here, I've had migraine with aura every day since the procedure and two today. I hear that these can continue for a couple of weeks or so. Also, a bit discouraging to see my Kardia detect Afib this

Time change
Does anyone else suffer from the time change here in the USA? I don't think that exists in the UK or other countries? For me, when the clocks are set ahead an hour in the spring (just this last Saturday night) or back in the fall, I'm a mess for about two weeks. It throws off my circadian rhythm. We
