I actually feel terrific heart rates around 60. A little bit slower as far as moving around but it will be three weeks tomorrow since my ablation and they did a lot of zapping but overall I feel really good. Just hang in there I'm sure you're in good hands take it easy relax meditate. There wasn't much pain at all on my end just uncomfortable for a day. And I stayed overnight but once they take all the tubes out you'll be fine! Good luck!!

Thankyou so much for such a promt reply. So glad you feel good. I'm a bit confused though as i thought the post i firstly replied to was from 9 months ago and your reply to me said your AV node ablation was only 3 weeks ago. I know it it 2 procedures ie pacemaker then ablation of node after pm becomes stable but it seems an awfully long time between procedures. Was this a normal timetable or was there a problem.?

Found it! OMG, terrifying. I live on my own and at 2.30am i would have noone and no chance. Thanks again, Buffafly. I really need the negatives as well as the possitive. Otherwise just how does one make an informed decision?

I believe Flutter ablation is fairly easy (I had both together) and after all tibetan36 is still here to tell the dramatic tale 😱 😀

Having had the AV Node ablated last October I can honestly say it has been the best thing to happen in this journey of having AF.

There has been a a lot of fine tuning the Pacemaker and have now have everything under control.

Pace and Ablate sounds daunting however my experience has been one of "what's all the fuss about!".

My suggestion is don't let overthinking blow everything out of proportion. The logic mind is super good at creating doubt.

Cheers
