It is one of the synptoms listed in our Recovering From Ablation fact sheet.

There's certainly a link between eating and AF kicking off. A lot of members try to avoid big meals, sometimes having 4 smaller ones a day. You may still be a little swollen inside after your ablation and hopefully after a few more weeks this problem will disappear. If possible try to sit still for an hour after having eaten. At one time my AF would kick off if I had lunch out and then tried to walk anywhere, they were horrible times.

Hi I also had Ablation 5 weeks ago and have felt bloated and digestive system all to cock since Iv gained nearly half a stone but I also have a Hyatis hernia and wonder if there’s a connection.Iv already had a Svt attack since the Ablation and get lots of eptopic beats and a weird throbbing sensation in my stomach that makes me feel anxious I can’t explain it.I sound like I need putting down 🙄 but this forum is such a help thank you to all .I hope your palpitations settle are you back to work and normal exercise?
