Made it through the heart procedure just fine !

Robin's a sweetie for getting you an air conditioner, I bet that really does help! Hope all goes well with the heart shock, and your natural rhythm comes back. :love_heart:

I went in today for the "cardiovert", which is where they shock you to put the heart out of a-fib, and back into a normal rhythm. It took them three times (which I thankfully slept through), but on the last try, it worked.
I am feeling much better again. Once they get the heart to working right, it is noticeable right away , and hopefully, this time it will stay in rhythm.
I could barely breathe enough to get around, and some days simply could not even get out of bed, or think straight when I did.
Thank you again for everyone here that has been praying and sending the good wishes ! They worked, and I am feeling much better again.
 

I asked because I have leaky valve AND cHF diagnosed 2 years ago. I have no symptoms so far except that I am more tired these days
especially after exercise. They told me I would need surgery in a few years or less but they do not know when. It is inevitable.
I also live in a humid area and am planning to move to an arid state next year. I don't have fibriliation. At least you have a daughter to help
you with it. I have not heard of convergent procedure. I have heard that there is a non invasive procedure. Best of luck to you.
 
I'm glad to hear after 10 years, they've got your heart in a normal rhythm. I don't know the whole story, but I am so, very happy for you:) Denise PS as well as your loved ones that must feel so much relief, and joy:)
