Afib worse than before ablation
I had the most glorious day in 3 years on the 4th day after my first ablation, which the doc said went great. The first three days were tougher because I had a sort throat, fever, then a migraine. But on day 4 I felt incredible…until about 9:30pm when my watch told me I was in afib again. And then

Any ideas/stories about treating PAC’s??
Had ablation in May of this year for lone AFib. Structurally normal heart. Had mild runs of PACs prior to the procedure that would come and go. Now going on 7 months after procedure and they are more bothersome than the AFib was. Last for hours and/or days on end. It’s really wearing me down. I’ve tried

A-Flutter Ablation Success
How many have had an a-flutter ablation and it lasted? My doctor made it sound like its one and done for a long time to come but the more I read, the more it makes me think it's just temporary and a way of life to have to keep going in or then possibly have to get another one for Afib very soon after

Cox maze: anyone had this procedure?
Hi all just booked for a private consult with cardiothoraticic surgeon in northwest, hopefully for Cox maze procedure for afib. Was in a+e for 14 hours yesterday on monitors...sent me home, still in AFib. Long story, but bit by bit I am finding out that treatment for my AFib is very limited due to other

I am back again sorry if I wrote this last night.
almost a month ago I had a cardioversion and it was amazing. I have been dealing with a heart rate in the 150s since the end of April. When I woke up from the CV it was 82. I actually had a smile as I awoke. I did not even know my heart rate was down yet so maybe it was the drugs lol but I felt happier

Metoprolol
I have a CT angiogram tomorrow at 0830 and have been given two tablets of Metoprolol (50mg) to take 12 hrs and then 2hrs before the procedure. This is apparently to slow the heart down (to below 60bpm). I rang the hospital and told them that I already take Sotalol and my heart rate is generally slow

Was there a trigger for your symptoms Mine was likely the death of a loved one 🥹
my symptoms all started after the death of my dad at the end of 2019 - I first started to take them ‘seriously ‘ in feb / March 2020 . Although the diagnostic process was long - as most of you will know - the consultant felt it was likely that this Emotional trauma was my trigger . Just wondered

Advice please
Since starting on the steroid journey I have experienced palpitations and high blood pressure. The palpitations were controlled by beta blockers and since reducing the steroid dose my blood pressure is back to normal. However my heart rate is not! I’ve reduced the beta blockers because my pulse was

update / nurse
hi all, well had chat with nurse today and she said my bisoprolol was such a low dose it was not helping me, so going back on my evening one and if that doesn’t help up the flecainide. It’s not what I wanted. All my problems are coming from my left atrium, the rest of my heart is ok so she said. I asked

Post Ablation breathing difficulties
Hi all! So, I’m 11 weeks post my (first ablation) and I seem to be one of the lucky ones with zero Afib symptoms since the procedure. Long may it last! But I’ve been having breathing issues ever since the op and wanted to know if others have been in a similar position? Generally my chest just feels

Never Ending
I was only diagnosed a week ago, after a weekend of being in AFib, went to the ER. Confirmed. It's been non stop ever since. I am now on Xarelto and Metoprolol 50 x2 a day. NO relief. Most of my ECG readings show heart rate around 130-140. BP mostly ok--a bit high, but not awful. I find myself

AF taking a different direction??
Had an AF attack yesterday and it was terminated after 3 hours with my PIP 200 mg Flecainide and half a metoprolol tablet. This is about average and I have attacks every 7 to 10 days. After a few hours rest I went for a walk but didn’t feel great, lethargic and generally off par. I kept checking my apple
