IF he came back, it would be very interesting! I thought he was saying he had flutter, not afib. But an earlier post he said he had an ablation. I 'concluded' he did not need ablation for flutter.

He rubbed many here the wrong way, but I found him somewhat enlightening albeit crude.

JPG,

Thanks. In a general sense, medicine is primitive on this planet. Even well intentioned, good doctors are unfortunately stumbling in the dark often times here so a misdiagnosis can certainly happen. In this specific case, for the individual mentioned, he had both afib, a flutter and a blockage, which all resulted in a cardiac arrest according to plan.
