Afib and Multaq

I went on Multaq in the Summer of 2019, Diltiaziem and Eliquis 5 mg, when I was first diagnosed with AFIB. It all made me feel tired, depressed, and I had itchy skin. It all controlled it until late Summer 2020. I had to go to ER twice and had Cardio Versions, and that didn’t work....The Doctor I saw in my City that does Ablations had a success rate of 40%! I was on an AFIB Site that I read about people having two, three and more Ablations! I was 76 years old last year and concerned and scared because my Medications were not controlling my AFIB. I had an Ablation Surgery on 11-2020 at a Mayo Clinic and feel great now that I am off all Meds except Eliquis..my energy is back and I feel like my old self. I found many Doctors do Ablation Surgeries but there is a big difference in their success rate.

I am going through this now. I seemed to be in AFIB all the time ,however for now at least, it is at a controlled rate. My Doctor would like to Cardo convert but I have heard from many patients also that if it works at all it is temporary. I have a feeling an an Ablation is in my future. Best of luck to you and continued good health.
