Surgery won't happen until a few hours after. They say it can take anywhere between 2-6 hours. I will be there overnight and discharged Friday afternoon. And thank you Stella  |

Jedi.. I'm having surgery on my heart. It is called an ablation. They go in through an artery in the groin and travel up to the heart. Then they burn a tunnel from one side of the heart to the other side (because there is no opening or valve they can go through to get there) and once in the other side they will burn a few places. There are electrical cells that are very chatty or aggressive causing me to go into a-fib all the time. They cannot remove these cells so what they do is burn the tissue around them to cause scar tissue to be created over them. Once that is done the cells cannot "chat" to each other and cause me to go into a-fib. There is a 65% chance this will work first time around. If it doesn't they will do it again in a couple months and that has a 90% chance of working. If per chance that doesn't work either...then they will discuss pace makers.  Columbusdude82.. Thank you. I'm sure everythinf will be fine too! I'm a tough cookie to crumble.  |

Laura, my father just had that done, he had no problems. He had the shock treatment to see if they could "flip" it, that didn't work, and then he took these meds where he had to stay in the hospital in case he went into a-fib, neither worked for longer than a month, so they went in and burned his heart. His heart I guess would go in and out of rhythm, he never knew it was happening, it was caught on a life insurance exam, and it even when in and out on the same day!
You'll be fine!

You'll be fine! Hi Flower. Yeah, I had been scheduled for the cardioversion (shocking of the heart) over a month ago, but while prepped for it my heart wasn't in a-fib so they decided not to do it. I have been on a couple different heart medications (beta-blockers) but they weren't working even when maxed out so they decided this was the only option I had left, otherwise I am in a high risk for having a stroke. Hopefully by this time tomorrow I will be able to move my legs and walk around. lol And by this time next week feeling like my old self again. |
