Has anyone been banded with A-Fib

I have to get my cardiac clearence on Thurs. Is there anyone that got banded with arterial fibulation? I don't think it will be a problem, but I'd like to hear from anyone else that has this problem.

Hi There- I don't have Afib but I do have a histroy of an irregular heartbeat that sometimes slips into an Aflutter type rhythm (albeit for a short time). I take a beta blocker to control it and my EKGs are normal. Before surgery my doc had me take a stress test which had some abnormalities so then I had to do a nuclear stress test. Since the NST was fine I was cleared for surgery. I did have to take my beta blocker before surgery. No complications at all. Good Luck!
