Feeling exhausted and tired. How long is the recovery? Taking Lisinopril, Coumadin and low dose of Bistolic, Lasix. I am 77. Had 2 ablations prior. AF since 2015. 8 cardio versions.

If you have had two ablations. 8 cardioversions and an AV node/PM procedure all in such a short space of time I would think your poor old heart is exhausted with all the poking about. Remember that it takes three to six months to recover fully from a PVI ablation procedure. The gap between PM and AV node ablation seems inordinately short as well so give it time.
