1 year update 1 year since Dr. Natale performed my 1st ablation 6/10/20 after dealing with afibb for 8+ years. Dr. Natale took me off all meds 3 month mark 9/10/20, then I started getting PVC/PAC at a rate 7k daily (7%) according to Zio patch. Pretty uncomfortable at that rate. Went back on metoprolol which calmed PVC/PAC down to a trickle. Stopped metoprolol again 3/15/21 for another 7 day Zio patch, which showed 200 for the 7days total. I have been off all meds since 3/15/21 and it feels great!!!! I still can get occasional days where PVC/PAC can number in the 100's but no where near that pain in the bum 7k. Zero Afibb since ablation(knocking on wood)!!! Truly life changing!!!

Metoprolol seems to work somewhat but must take it pro at a dose of 12.5 mg.Higher doses cause extreme fatigue and severe depression. Dr. K says he will re-eval. results in 2 months.He states more work may be required I am intoerant of all meds and am following Dr. Bunch protocol ( the BLAST) I can hardly wait to get my life back!!!!!!]]> markwlightmd AFIBBERS FORUM Sat, 12 Jun 2021 04:34:35 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,181067,181080#msg-181080 Re: 1 year update https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,181067,181080#msg-181080

Nice report. Hope the pvcs say bye bye for good
You using mag etc? K? Coq? I go to Austin july 5-10 with 7/7 my date

Supplement with mag and taurine no potassium.

I consume mostly lean meats and fruit, veg and nuts probably to much fruit:). Fruit consumption covers my potassium.

While zero PVCs would be great I'll take what I have compared to the 7k daily:)]]> Kleinkp AFIBBERS FORUM Fri, 11 Jun 2021 20:52:13 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,181067,181071#msg-181071 Re: 1 year update https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,181067,181071#msg-181071 keeferbdeefer AFIBBERS FORUM Fri, 11 Jun 2021 20:11:18 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,181067,181070#msg-181070 Re: 1 year update https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,181067,181070#msg-181070 You using mag etc?
