Clear DayMy husband was in AFib from the time he went to the doctor in February

until late April when he had a cardioversion. For 10 days after the

cardioversion, he was in NSR.

Then Sunday he leaned over and lifted a mildly heavy box, and went into AFib.

We hoped against hope that he would self convert, but that didn't happen.

So we set up on Monday for another cardioversion on Tuesday, time off from work,

etc.

About mid-afternoon Monday, his heart self-converted to NSR! Wonders never

cease!

My very first experience with all this was last year when I had

A-Flutter badly enough for me to FINALLY seek some help. I ended up in

the ER with a HR of about 160. They diagnosed A-Flutter almost

immediately and put me in ICU for a couple days to see it I would self

convert. I didn't but then, just as they came in the room to

cardiovert me, the nurse looked at the monitor and said, " This is your

lucky day, you just converted yourself. " I was in sinus at a nice

steady 65 or so and was released later that day.

Sadly, I seem to have lost that ability somewhere in the last year and

almost always end up getting cardioverted now.
