Disappointment after Ablation Number 4
Is a
pacemaker
the inevitable next step? I’d be so grateful for any words of wisdom from fellow sufferers.

Hello Everyone !!
In mid Jan 2024, I had an episode which was recorded on the loop recorder which showed my heart had stopped for 14 seconds and I was admitted straight away for a
pacemaker
. At the current time, am very shocked and surprised 😳 and sore but relieved that I have some explanation.

CRT pacemaker. Post op
Hi, This may sound ridiculous but has anyone had any left hand/wrist pain 2 months down the line of having a CRT
pacemaker
fitted? I think it’s nerve pain as the
pacemaker
has bedding in. It feels like I have broken my wrist.

Hip Replacement
Has anyone had hip replacement surgery with a
pacemaker
. I have already had a hip replaced but that was before being diagnosed with Heart Failure and having a
pacemaker
. Just wondered if it is possible as I was told I would probably need the other hip replaced at some point.

Advice on pacemakers
The GP and Cardiologist have both suggested a
pacemaker
due to my low heart beat - usually in the low 40s but has been know to go into the 30s. Are any more suitable for people with AF than others? Any advice welcome.

~AV Node ablation update~
There are other readings too that are not normal, but GP believes the
pacemaker
( Feb 2024) was enough for body to cope with and this AV Node ablation has been too much too soon - I juggle a few other health issues alongside which added to the mix.

early concerns/ paranoia
There was a 5 week delay in getting a MRI because I have a
pacemaker
(approved but very few labs will do it). My urologist’s office says they dont discuss the urine test until the MRI results are in (still another 10 days).

No treatment offered for A F
Should she be asking about any of those treatments or a
pacemaker
? Her general health is really good .She seems to have been told very little about her condition apart from how to control her warfarin levels. Or is it typical for the NHS in Wales?

I was very ill for some time after and a week later needed to have a permanent
pacemaker
fitted. There were other difficulties which meant I was unable to travel home until 5th February.

Update and Plan
He said worst case scenario, if it just gets worse and worse, he could do an AV node ablation and
pacemaker
, but that is obviously his last choice for options. He seemed to understand that the meds may just be a stop gap and that ultimately, I will be back in the EP lab.

pacemakers and ICDs
Also do you choose as to which
pacemaker
or ICD AND would it be better to go private for this rather than go through NHS and if so where to get it done? All ideas welcome.

Could I stop taking Rivaoxaban?
I’ve been on Flecainide, Bisoprolol and Rivaoxaban now for 5 years and have a
pacemaker
, my heart is in sinus rhythm at 60bpm. I understand that Rivaoxaban is to help prevent blood clots forming, but as my AF is now managed could I stop taking it?

Bloods
So I've had my blood results back bnp levels done for heart faliure, it's looking like it's the start of heart failure so can be managed hopefully with meds and in future need for maybe a
pacemaker
, there are also other blood issues that I did bring up that need looking at as are always abnormal.

Encourage to those contemplating valve replacement
My
pacemaker
is a mere baby at 4, but again, I found having a
pacemaker
fitted more relaxing than having a filling (and I have an excellent dentist btw). Enjoy the photo, and feel free to contact me via this site if you have any questions or concerns.
