is so lucky to have you and your support. Remember, if this PVA doesn't

get the desired results, a second touch ablation is very common. I hope all

works out and treats you to something special!

Hello! Your husband is very fortunate to have someone like you who is

proactive with his afib. I wish your husband the very best results with his

ablation, and I wish both of you the very best together.

I read with great interest what you wrote about the following:

> Noticing things like the onset headache prior to an episode where

> the whites of his eyes would go red

The headache and whites of my eyes going red always precede an episode, but I

have never heard this addressed before on this board. Could you point me to

more information about this? Thanks.

Please keep us posted as to your husband's progress.

Sandy,

Noticing his headaches coming on ie red eyes that sort of thing was

more of an observation. I have looked at some different sites today

and there are so many variables anything from salt depletion in your

body due to medication...dehydration...maybe its just a signal

something personal to the individual. also notices that when he

has an episode of afib he urinates alot more. I know that he finds

his afib episodes worse if he sleeps on his left hand side and also

if he eats to close to going to bed.

And he knows he as fortunate to have me as I am to have him.

Best Wishes

Lis

Hi Lis, thanks for answering my query. My husband says my headaches, red

eyes and subsequent afib episodes are the results of stress at work, time on the

computer, etc. Could be he's right! TGIF! Sandy

He may have a point Sandy, I know seemed a little rung out on

those days too so maybe the master of the house might have to

monitor your stress levels and possibly do something about them tell

him a good massage helps destress its the least he can do haha,
