I in AFib and getting a ct scan for blockage in 5 hours will they still do it if I am in AFib. It always last awhile

My watch woke me up to heart rate over 100 for 10 minutes. After I have up and in AFib for about 40 minutes going up and down is it worked its way down to 41 and stay in that area 41 to 53 for about 10 minutes is that normal. Guess this is mentally getting to me.

How can a ER do a cardioversion when you go in for AFib if you are in the last 4or 5 hours. Been in AFib now again after my ablation 3 weeks ago and was told go to ER and they do a cardioversion on me and I will go home. Just wondering as I wish I would just go back into NSR

Had 2 cardio versions and an ablation , my heart rate now is running between 50 and 90 . Is 50 too low ? I have friends that say I need to go back now and have it seen about immediately

Spot was healing good but my jeans rubbed it so what do you recommend using so it doesn’t get infected? All thoughts welcome

How soon after the first ablation do you do another one ??? I had one done on Wednesday and now they are looking to do another one Monday!!! I thinking to soon ! Please let me know

Had my first ablation at noon yesterday and my oxygen level was at 88 for awhile. They keep me over night because of age 76F with COPD. At home now but very tired oxygen level at 94 now , just a little discomfort in my chest . Worst thing was this headache I can’t shake. Still in SR so I guess all is good . EP said come back in 3 weeks he gave me new meds for a month .(amiodarone 100 mg , 1 week 400 the 1 week 200 then 2 weeks 100 mg)

My other meds were metoprolol 25mg twice a day and Xarelto 20mg once a day. Will discuss these in around 3 months

Hope this works as my cardioversion didn’t last 24 hours 2 months ago.

Really feels different being in SR as I was in flutter all the time! So glad I did this.

How long does the ablation it self take? I have read several comments from 1hour to 4 hours. That seems along time to be put under. Any comments appreciated.
Thanks

I am going in for a Ablation in 2 weeks. I bought a Kardia after I was to hospital by my PC. This Kardia say after the last 3 days I am in constant AFib and the EP and cardiologist has me on Xarelto 20mg and Metoprolol 25mg. The nurse when I called said continue meds and they will do my pre op blood work next week . Alittle concerned since my bpm are all over the place from 60 to 100 and a few times higher. Thanks for any info.
