My friend was in the car with me, we car pool. But you are right, I should have called 911. The ER found nothing wrong and sent me home. I am really concerned about taking the BB tonight, even though it was 3 days ago.by Max - AFIBBERS FORUM
And here is the question I have in my mind. About 3 weeks ago, my previous cardiologist doubled my Toprol XL.It makes me feel like crap. But I am wondering if that increase is what caused the pauses. I have emailed my cardiologist with this question, but would like any opinions you all may have.I skipped today's dose so far, but am planning on going back to 25mg tonight.by Max - AFIBBERS FORUM
Monday, I had a Linq recorder implanted. They had to do it in the bay because the cath lab was backed up. No biggie, but then it wouldn't stop bleeding, so they held pressure for 20 minutes and then stapled me shut.I went back into afib there, but I didn't really feel it. Went home all bruised up. Next morning, driving to work, fortunately very slowly just getting started, I had the weiby Max - AFIBBERS FORUM
I guess it's obvious that I really don't trust this guy. I do have an appointment later this month with another EP, who operates @ the same hospital. I think I will wait to make any decisions.by Max - AFIBBERS FORUM
Yes, I have found out how many he has done but am having some issues with finding out how successful they are. I get one story from the nurses and another from his office. I used to work at the hospital where he does them so I have asked around. I am going to ask more. Any other thoughts on finding out the truth?by Max - AFIBBERS FORUM
Hi I'm Max and I have had afib for about 2 years, I was diagnosed @ a preop check up for a total knee replacement. I knew I was exhausted and short of breath but had blown it off. I was started on Sotalol and cardioverted X2, that was effective for a week. Started on Tikosyn and it worked pretty well until the last few months. I have been going in/out of a fib and am starting to feel awful.by Max - AFIBBERS FORUM
