Ablation update 3 days later

Hi guys

Well it's been 3 days since my ablation and I've only just found out that my procedure was only partially done,

The right hand side was cut easily but the left hand side wouldn't take so they had to burn around the veins in a pearl necklace way,or spot welded which makes more sense to me,with me being a welder/fabricator for years lol

Everything's feeling fine apart from some chest soreness which could be coming from a small pericardial effusion and inflammation from the procedure but nothing to be over concerned with.

Matt

Ha ha

I hope my surgeon was a better welder than I was Pete lol

It's too early to tell but apart from a few thuds and missed beats,I honestly feel brand new though,

Just praying it stays that way.

Thanks for cheering me up Pete,You're a star!!!
