Thanks everyone for all your support during my anxiety about the procedure. All went very well. The sedation was no problem - I don't remember a thing! It was Atrial Flutter so was only two hours, but as I was the last in the day I had to stay in overnight. I'm home now and feel fine.
Hope this helps allay the fears of those still waiting. Bob's right - going to the dentist is worse.

Hi - I had mine inOctober - for a week everything was fine the a week later my right thigh became swollen and a massive bruise appeared.
All normal apparently so do 't be too alarmed if that happens to you - it may not but thought I'd mention it just in case - all the best in your recovery.
I had my ablation 30th December and 3rd January BP and HR dropped, making me feel quite weak. This was followed a few hours later waking up at 2.35am back to square one. As this was expected I didn't get too worried and got back to sleep soon after with just a few thoughts.
The PVC's that troubled me so much have practically stopped, which is a good thing.
Well done and hope that all continues to go well. I had mine on 16 July and may now need another one but this time the EP says if so it will be under a general to tidy up loose ends.
We're all different so no reason to suppose why yours can't be a great success.
