A MyHeartDiseaseTeam Member asked a question 💭

I am scheduled for an @ablation soon. I've had no arrhythmia since taking medications (@xarelto and sotalol). I was hospitalized twice last fall, one with cardiac inversion.

A Little Over 3 Years Ago I Was Diagnosed With A-Fib After Putting Off Testing Since I Had No Symptoms. NO SYMPTOMS At All.
A MyHeartDiseaseTeam Member asked a question 💭

Heart Cath, stress tests, etc. Three different providers in same office put me on three different prescriptions, had cardio-version, electric paddles and I monitor with a Kardia-Mobile daily. No A-Fib since. Also monitor BP, heart rate and Oxygen level daily and all good. The side affects of the drugs present symptoms I NEVER exhibited before the drugs.
