Irene Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 You might think it's been a bit quiet in my corner this week. Well, I do have an excuse. On Tuesday I was a day-patient at our local hospital, having a Cardioversion to attempt to bring my heart rhythm under control. After three CV 'shocks' it was a success! :) Unfortunately it only lasted briefly. By this morning I was back with the same Atrial Fibrillation problem. :( My brain still works (occasionally) so here I am, back on line again. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-pops- Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 Oh dear, Irene. It will work eventually. At one time I thought I would need a permanent appointment to have mine fixed but, it worked in the end - next episode I'll have to have a pacemaker!

Irene Posted July 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2014 Hope they get it sorted for you soon. Thanks andsome, I hope so too. ECG done yesterday verified that AF was back. Not sure what comes next... Continuing with weekly blood tests for INR level (Warfarin effect). I feel like a pin-cushion! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
