I have had AFib for about 10 years myself with long periods of sinus following electrocardioversion procedures. They no longer work for me, so I am now just trying to decide if I can just live with AFib or do I want to do something else to try to stop the AFib. One driver I have is I'd like to return to more vigorous exercise, including bike riding, street bike. But, I find I get tired very easily once I start to push even a little, slight upgrade either walking or riding. I haven't tried to get back to jogging, but that's another activity I engaged in when I was in sinus. My cardiologist and my EP both say given my tolerance of AFib suggest it may be best for me to simply live with it. My at rest symptoms are almost zero.
Why are you considering a pacemaker? I was not aware that a pacemaker would be used to cure AFib, or maybe that's not what you're trying to accomplish.
Your note makes me think I need to get serious about exercise, maybe I can do serious walking/hiking again, even with AFib.
