It is now two months since my ablation and things are still good. Get ectopics most days but usually when I have been physically busy other than that I am in nsr all the time. I don't get that feeling of exhaustion which I used to get every day after lunch and I managed to walk up a steep hill yesterday without gasping for air. Fingers crossed that it stays like this. I thought all the tiredness was a sign of getting older (I'm 66) but I now feel so different.
I think also being off the medication helps I had been on flecainide and rivaroxoban before the op after the op the cardiologist at the hospital put me on bisoprolol but I when I got home I noticed that my blood pressure was very low which was making me feel very dizzy and my GP took me off everything except for the rivaroxoban ( I have bisoprolol as a pip but so far have not needed it) and since then everything has been fine. So nice not too have to take so many pills and feel normal again.

Sounds good Mikee69. One thing I do find if I walk any real distance in the heat my heart beats so hard it begins to hurt so hopefully when the weather is cooler I'll find it easier. The walk I managed uphill wasn't too far and it was in the cool of the evening but like you I do feel my fitness is gradually returning; long may it continue.
