Melatonin with AF medication
I’m on Flecainide , bisoprolol for AF plus Apixaban,. Melatonin is supposed to aid sleep , does anyone on the group have experience using melatonin with the above , the pharmacist I’ve spoken to said there shouldn’t be a problem but didn’t sound too reassuring.

Week 3 Post Ablation
21 days has passed since my Cryoablation. I have had 10 separate episodes of AFIB. Some just a couple of hours, sometimes 2 in one day. I understand that I am in blanking period. my question to the group, when an episode starts, what action do you take? Do you rest, do continue on with daily activities

Inhaler causing A Fib
Hi everyone, On Tuesday I had an episode of a fib. It lasted 16 hours. I take metoprolol Succinate Er 25mg. The next day after using one of my inhalers Incruse Ellipta I felt kinda off. My blood pressure was quite high 148/99. The next day the same thing happened. Today I woke up and my BP was still

Suitability for catheter ablation?
Hello I was diagnosed with AF a month ago. When asked, my GP told me that catheter ablation is not really done for Atrial Fibrillation. Since many of you on this forum, and elsewhere, have had a catheter ablation, I wonder whether there were any special circumstances that made the ablation appropriate

Pulse Field Ablation
Hello Everybody, Persistent AFIB since 10/2022. 74 years. At the moment continuously in NSR post DCCV in January with initiation of Multaq (giving me some symptoms with sinus bradycardia after three week Holter Monitor use - no afib recorded but monitor showed SR/SB with rates 40-100 bpm.). Sometimes

Decision time!
Would be grateful for your views on my afib journey. Was diagnosed last November with paroxysmal afib, 2.6% burden. Burden up to 6% (from 7 day monitor in March). Have reacted badly to both flecainide and bisoprolol - fatigue, faintness, short of breath. Have been advised to have an ablation. However

Update on 5th post-ablation
Had my 5th ablation March 31st. Great for 2 weeks and then back into tachycardia with bouts of atypical afib tossed in (Kardia confirmed). Scheduled for a cardioversion May 12. Meanwhile on metoprolol and diltiazem (and anticoagulated of course). Completely idiopathic and hopefully just a blip during

Ablation update
So 8 months on post ablation I am still in permanent AFib but completely symptomless. I am back to sleeping through the night, much reduced anxiety from awaiting the next daily onset of the paroxysmal AFib, I am walking/running 4 miles a day, I have a personal trainer and am in the gym 4 times a week

Breakfast then and now
Hi Afibbers. Had to miss a meal yesterday for cardioversion (back in NSR 🤞) hence my mind on breakfast this morning! Seeing as lifestyle change is central to Afib control and cure, I thought it would be interesting to share ideas on our first meal of the day and maybe how this has changed over time,

Things Change Quickly.
I started with mild breathlessness 4 months ago, that got worse and led to an ECG revealing an LBBB. My breathlesness gradually got worse and that led to an 8 hour spell in A&E then 2 weeks later, a day in the observation ward. An ultrasound scan on the 12th of September revealed the bad news that i
