Magnesium for breakfast!
I thought I’d wait before I tried it because I was due a
cardioversion
. (Which only worked for three days). I have now taken 375mg for the last three days and it’s brilliant!

Feeling a little lost.
Has
cardioversion
worked for you. I’m hoping the
cardioversion
works. Does anyone know that by having to wait possibly up to 6 months maybe longer for one if my heart will keep deteriorating and it’s less likely to work.

Hospitals (England)
Hi, do any of you know which hospitals in England are meant to be the best for cardiology - specifically ablations? I’m with Blackpool hospital and have had six or seven cardioversions and two ablations since I started with persistent AF in 2013. Nothing’s worked for long. One ablation lasted 4 months

Flecainide and Cardioversion?
My EP tried a
cardioversion
on 1 October which he was fairly sure would get me back into sinus rhythm (SR) but despite 3 attempts SR was only achieved for a few seconds. I am taking Rivaroxaban and also 2.5mg Bisoprolol daily.

Second ablation update
Thankfully I understand all went well, they said they had to do two
cardioversion
as well during my procedure. It took a little over six hours, I was kept in hospital overnight and was discharged late afternoon the next day.

Persistent AF and keeping your job.
Hello again. I still have PAF but am on the cusp of it becoming persistent. I have been told no more cardioversions. Over the years I have had to change my jobs because of AF - I’m now self employed as a gardener, I run my house as a “b and b” and we are self sufficient in veg at home thanks to my veggie

Paf or paroxysmal ?
I was diagnosed with paf 2019, was going along the route of
cardioversion
but suddenly went into NSR the week before ! (Lasted approx a week). Hospital started looking at further tests for possible paroxysmal rather than persistent. Now back in AF, currently on 5th week!

Cryoablation for my Afib
Just wanted to say thanks for all the posts. I am 42 would say healthy. Started having Afib in Dec of 2020. Had 2 cardioversions in Dec and Jan which only kept me in rhythm for like 3 days each. Just had the Cryoablation this past Monday. Used general anesthesia and seemed like a non event. Recovery

Failed cardioversion what’s next
First

Sotalol
Had a
cardioversion
last Thursday, but it only lasted for 2 days so back into hospital and had anothercardioversion. My question is I was stopped with my bisoprolol and put on sotalol. I looked on the knternetanditwas lassoed side by side with amiadrone and I’ve heard bad reports on these.

AF and cold water swimming
It's mentioned a
cardioversion
shock brings the heart back to normal, ( I've had one in the past) but do you think the shock of cold water would do the same? Thank you.

Last electro cardioversion
I’m in hospital about to have my 3rd and I’m told final electro
cardioversion
. If it works, I will at some point ( days/months) have an af episode which will not self convert and the hospital will take no further action other than to reduce my heart rate. I am too heavy for an ablation.
