looks like round 2 - another ablation

I had cryo ablation in early January. I've had intermittent AF bouts after the three month "window" for the heart to settle down. My EP thinks this is due to some of the isolated veins now conducting current. He suggets a second RF ablation to "spot weld" those possible gaps.

My question: is 7 months post ablation enough time for the heart to calm down, or hve others been back for round two for similar reason?

Thanks!

Yes but about a year onwards. Unless his waiting list is short this could well be your gap.
