Success - Finally. Carry on Marine.

Heading into 4 months AF free after ablation without a hitch, other than surviving a huge Pulminary embolism brought on by the ablation procedure and massive amounts of blood thinners. After 90 days and a few CT scans I am officially off thinners as of yesterday. Elated and scared at the same time going forward. Now if my resting heart beat just settles down I can get back to business as usual. Wishing all my AF roomies success going forward also. :^)

Oh WOW - thank goodness you survived and hopefully it was worth it now, being AF free is fantastic. Hope all goes to plan. Are you planning to stay off anti-coagulants?

I once owned a boat called Riders on the Storm - unfairly nick-named ROTS........c'est la vie.

Yes. Hopefully No more meds for either condition.

Great. I'm sure your heart beat will slow in time - mine did.

Good luck ☘️
