I wrote earlier that I was having problems after going on Amoderone. I was in Afib about a week before I converted back to NSR. I do not know if it is the drug or the surgery starting to work. for the first time in years (even on medication) my heart does not do flip flops when I lie down at night. Even when I first went on amioderone I could feel my heart trying to go into afib. I have been in NSR for about a week now with no reaccurances of afib. I went back and read the operative reports. I had a combination of cuts and cryo in my operation. It seems McCarthey used the cryo around the valves and cut elsewhere
