Sounds like your GP is fobbing you off. There's no reason why he/she couldn't prescribe one of the warfarin replacements (NOAC) which, if it is the warfarin that's causing you problems, should make you feel a lot better. The ablation is a red herring as you will still be taking anti-coagulants after the procedure - if you are wise! Ask your GP why he is delaying your treatment. As support you could ring your EP/cardiologist's secretary (hospital will have the number) and confirm that he is happy for your GP to prescribe a NOAC.

Thanx for that I've rang the gp this morning told um need to c head gp 11.20 today your right I'm fed up of feeling like this thank u oaky

Be aware though that some EP's like you on warfarin for ablation. Mine does and for 6 months after. So better check with him.
