    Hi Jo ,
    Good to hear from you, I know I am venting a bit but it does make me mad when many people are not getting the right advice and treatment and the professionals can just walk away and leave all of us poor souls hanging
    Cheers .Kevin

    Jody....I am doing so much better. Am on a monitor for a month but only as a precaution. I had some flutter for the first month...but in the last month I only had it 3 times. I have my drs. appt next month and really am excited about it. I am relearning about my body...it seem strange that I don't know what to expect now with my heart. I am so used to the old way, but I am learning again.

    Welcome back...glad that you really enjoyed yourself. I am doing much better. Have a monitor on but drs. think that it is just a precautionary thing. I have only had 3 episodes this past month. And nothing so far. Later

    I am doing alot better. I have had a few bouts. Two events since around July 4th both lasting about 4 hours average. But over all I am doing much better. I am trying to get back in shape which is not easy. :-) I know have have around 6 months to see if the surgery was success. I am prayiing that I improve 100 percent or at least stabilize. Thanks for thinking of me.

    ~Randy

    Thanks Jodie...you have been such a help thru this.

    Hey....I'm wondering....
    I KNOW for certain that stimulants make me super symptomatic....and the effects of me consuming stimulants on a regular basis don't wear off until over a year following regular use. My cardio suggested an EP study....which I realize he may be prepared to ablate at that time...which sounds like a good thing for most people.....BUT... I am wondering if it is a good idea to go caffiene/stimulant free for a year and THEN get a halter on for a month to see if my heart can almost normalize itself to a reasonable level to avoid any ablation. What do you think? Did your doc suggest this? Did you ever hear of anyone doing this?


  • Lynnda (09/20/09)

    Thank you so much for responding to my post re ....new member is it AFIB! All this is so new to me...I am having a hard time piecing together the loads of info I am reading out there and figuring out where I fit in. It is good info to know that diff pple have diff AFib experiences and even diff episodes are different. Right now I still have a vague understanding of all of this and I am so grateful for hearing words such as yours! :D
