Been In Hospital Since early Monday morning and now out

[Lon]

I had a episode Of my long standing ATRIAL FIB Early Monday AM. Haven't had any episodes for five years. My heart rate went to 174 bpm. New med should keep the ole ticker stable.

Glad to hear that you are back posting and your condition is stabilised.
You take care now. We're all looking forward to your cochlea implant operation.

 

[Ruth n Jersey]

Glad you got that under control. You don't want anything to stand in the way of your implant.

 

[SeaBreeze]

Happy to hear you're back home Lon, please take it easy and take care.

 

[Lon]

Thanks Seabreeze Warri & Ruth. The Hearing Loss is really more of a irritant than the A Fib and I am looking forward to getting my CI going.

 

[Aunt Bea]

Sounds like your daughter had a ABLATION. I had the same procedure in2010. It took care of the A Fib for a few years and then came back. They burn small spots in the heart that interfere with the electrical signals, but some time later on new spots cause the problem and another procedure is done. New meds for me may take care of the problem if not I will probably have to have another ABLATION. I am sure your daughter is on a BLOOD THINNER Strokes can occur when we are in afib if not on a blood thinner. A Fib is irritating but no one dies from it.

While A FIB is irritating, no one dies from it. The biggest problem is the possibility of a stroke while in A Fib if not taking a BLOOD THINNER.
