A member asked:
May atrial flutter can be normal for forever with shock cardioversion treatment? or it just temporaly?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Either: After cardioversion you may have regular rhythm for a long time, unless the reason for your atrial flutter is still present. Not one standard answer. It depends if your MD found a reason for it and/or prescribed medicines to keep in sinus rhythm. Ask your doctor (again)
