Thanks. Husband has rx for 90 days. EP follow-up visit in a couple of weeks.

Husband lost his fatigue and regained appetite right after ablation procedure. But he’s concerned re intermittent afibs and irregular heartbeats. Are yours gone? If so, how long did it take?

Still get afibs. 2 o3 a day for 15- 20 minutes.

Hi there,
Everyone's experience seems to be different. First I was on Multaq, when they had to switch me to Amiodarone I lost 22 pounds without trying. Doctor's could not explain if I was losing weight because of off the Multaq, but I think so. I was on Amiodarone for one year, it truly saved my life. But, they did get me in for an ablation a year later. I am under my own choice to not take Amiodaron as I do have supraventricular tachycardia and CAD and have had 2 cardioembolic strokes. I am on a strict diet, currently 133 pounds, but doing everything to keep healthy. Exercise, and intermittent fasting (also because of news this morning I have 10 more kidney stones. My new total is now 34 stones). Ugh. Anyways, I wish you all the best and I highly recommend anyone to get an ablation. I do have occasional afib and oxygen that dips to 82 and lower at times but I believe I doing everything humanly possible to stay on top of my health. 73- and being as positive as possible!! Goodluck!!
