Carol had an appointment with her doctor yesterday. When they checked her condition they told me to take her to ER as she was in A-fib, again! In ER, they did a number of tests and gave her the option of treating it with meds or cardio version. Since she has had cardio version twice in 7 months, she chose to try meds to see if they could help. They gave her two types of injections and then waited for the results. She showed improvement in her pulse rate, which was very high. After about five hours they got the pulse rate down to 100 and it was safe to bring her home where she could be more comfortable and rest. She has needed much rest today and could feel more comfortable at home. She took her first med at home and the readings were high. An hour after taking the med her pulse rate had dropped by 25. We are so hopeful that the medicine does the trick. I am trying to see that she can relax and rest this evening, though I can't be as good as the nurse and doctor that worked with her.
