Has anyone on the Forum had annoying headaches within days of Ablation. I'm now on 6 days post Hybrid Ablation Part 2 and for the last 48 hours got an annoying headache which I can't shift. Just wondering if any of you fine people out there might have some ideas ?

Hello, I had my second ablation in February and I remember having a few headaches in the first week or so. I never had any after my first ablation.

They weren't nice but didn't last too long, good luck.

Yes I had a headache for a couple of days, not too bad and put it down to having to lie so very still for so long and the drugs, it seems to be a common effect, however if they become so intense that a paracetamol doesn't at least ease the pain or if they persist do please go back and see your doctor.
