PACs are back again
June 10, 2024 11:55PM
Well I made it from last Tuesday to today without any. It lasted about 3 hours today and at one point my heart rate was bouncing for 35 to 120 again. If starts up again tomorrow I call the doctor or head back to the ER. This is just getting old now. Sorry just a small rant for today.

If you do end up in the ER and they want to put in a pacemaker, it is worth asking your EP to select the model that is best for you as different brands and models have different features and you want to get one that works with your lifestyle and activity patterns.

Thanks Daisy, i will remember that. My EP will be there if needed. I hoping it's just a medication increase thats needed. I should have called him today but it started to settle down before I could call.

Sorry to hear that kliving. I, myself, am in a bit of panic mode. Seems that there are a few of us in a rocky boat.. Hoping the seas calm for you.

I am hoping an increase will help otherwise the next step will be tikosyn. During last weeks event AFIB was trying to start again on top of this. I really don't want that again with this. For now though I am going to try to get a couple of hours sleep before my day starts up again.

I just got my Propafenone dose increased. They said that if the Propafenone doesn't work, then I have to go back to the EP lab for another left sided atrial PAC ablation...

I have an appointment tomorrow, I guess I shall wait and see what's in store then. I managed alright today but I can still tell something is off a bit. But on the upside I am really sleepy today hopefully I can get back on schedule.
Not sure what to root for, for you. Hopefully you can get it worked out before it progresses. I know you are as tired of this as I am. Good luck!
