3 days post ablation

The first night after was rough. Couldn't lay down and only slept sitting up with short shallow breathing. That faded after about 20hrs then it was stretches of afib and tachycardia which faded by end of day 2. Today my only issues are my bruised groins and still coughing from the intabation. While I fully expect I will have more issues during my recover I want to thank those who put the fact sheet together. It was very useful as my doctor gave me a lot of info but not in depth. Will update again in a week. Thanks again.
