You just never know do you?

[Destroyer]

Well, here I lie in my hospital bed. My heart went into A-fib yesterday around 1:15pm. Been here since 3:15. If it doesn't reset itself using the drugs they are giving me, they will have to use the paddles and shock my heart tomorrow. There's a chance that the procedure will not work right and I may die. Odds are in my favor, but like I said, you just never know. So, I wanted to drop a message here and thank everyone for their friendship through the years. Hopefully I'll talk to you all tomorrow night. God bless.

The older I get, the more I realize every day 's a gift.you should be fine, odds are in your favor. If not, ablation & koumidin are next.

Hang tough

don't worry about it, my father has it happen to him from time to time, they've restarted him 8 or 9 times that I know of. He takes some kind of pill and does some sort of exercise that controls it most of the time, but he has to get restarted every once in a while. BTW, he's 82 and this has been going on with him for at least 10 years. Don't sweat it

That's not what I was expecting to read when I clicked on this thread. I'm sure everything will work out for you. The best place for you to be right now is where you are, and being monitored.

Get well soon D....your time is far from done here. Hope all goes well!

I know it is scary, but it is common. Like everyone else, I too have friend that used to go into afib all the time. He took that koumodin(?) and had the paddle resets often. Over a year now he had a ablation and his ticker has been steady.

Myself, I had a different type if irregularity called SVT. I was taking drugs for it and it would still happen unexpectedly and then I could make it go away. I too had an ablation, a few years ago, and have been fine.

Hope to hear from you soon.
