Well just been to see EP and Ive been told my SVT is now history ( great news) and theres a 75% chance AF has gone to ( not so convinced of this yet...but we will see ). He wants me to come off all medication . Thats Flecainide and Warfarin saying my risk of stroke is minimal so I dont need it. So folks watch this space!!!
Check up post ablation: Well just been... - Atrial Fibrillati...

How good is that! Here's hoping the medication can be successfully dropped.
Thats really good news the AF has really settled down and no flecainide. I did think we had to stay on anti coags for life whatever the outcome after ablation.
I dont even know if its safe to just stop Warfarin. Thats what Ive done because thats what I was told!!!
You can only do as you are told. We are all different but you can ask questions if needed. I can't wait till my drugs are reduced. One was stopped but im taking 2others for a short time.
Hi Bridget
Firstly, well done you appear to have had a successful ablation.
I too was told by my EP (at the 12 month review) that I didn't need to continue the anticoagulant as it was not necessary in my case. There appear to be quite a few people around here who have a different view but I reasoned the EP was the one who knew my particular case and history.
Would need to start anticoagualtion within 48 hours if (hopefully not) I have another episode.
All the best
Dave
It all sounds good. Will keep my fingers crossed for you.x
