My husband is going in for a cardioversion tomorrow morning. That is where they shock the heart to try to get it into rhythm. In January we discovered at a physical that he had atrial fib, congestive heart failure, a blood clot in his heart, and had suffered a silent heart attack that was very serious, all at 61 years of age. He spent a week in the hospital and his problems have been controlled by medication. He has made terrific progress so far, so I am optimistic that this will get his heart back into rhythm again. But, a few prayers and the power of this forum is always wonderful. Thanks!! :hp

Thank you so much for your prayers and thoughts. Tim had 2 procedures today, a TEE(transesphogeal echocardiogram), where they stick a camera down his throat to take pictures of his heart. That showed no blood clots :YAY

so they could do the cardioversion. It took 2 shocks with the paddles, but the heart is now in rhythm. You can't predict how long it will stay that way, but we are so thankful that it worked for now!! He came home 2 hours after the last procedure (it's amazing to me) and is really tired, but doing well!! You guys are the best!! The power of this forum is great!! :hp
