Dr opted out of a cardioversion

Dr felt that I didn’t need the cardio version…I did have a nuclear stress test which pics didn’t turn out… so now they want to do. Transradial cardiac catherzation… just to make sure all is good…. Has anyone had this done…. They want me to stop blood thinners 2 days before… is that safe?

You haven't told us enough about yourself for for us to offer much help. All I can gather from your posts is you have afib, a cardioversion has been suggested, but apparently there's some debate about that for unknown reasons.

How old are you? Are you male or female? What's your afib history? What drugs are you taking? Have you had any procedures such as ablations? We're not mind readers. You need to open up and tell us about yourself.
