Three years ago today

Today is the third anniversary of my cryoablation carried out by Prof. Richard Schilling in London. Since then I have had no AF at all and have “got my life back”. It was not an unpleasant experience and there are many more successes than failures so I would urge anyone who has ablation recommended by their EP to seriously consider it.

Good to hear Beta44! I had an ablation with Richard Shilling almost 5 weeks ago today and (fingers crossed) have had no arrhythmias since the procedure and feeling much better, even in this hot weather. Follow up in September so hoping I get the all clear. Nice to hear of another success story!!!

You could not have been in better hands. I think that he is one of the best in the country.
