Ablation worked

[Sillysunshine]

Hello all I haven’t checked in for a long time because I am pretty sure my ablation has worked.

Had a few ups and downs for the first 4 months, but it’s now been 6 months and things are great.

My heart has been so quiet I don’t even notice it. It’s pure bliss.

And I hope it stays this way.

Hope everyone has a lovely AF free Christmas 🎄😀

Thanks for chiming in! Were you at all discouraged during that first 4 months whi,enyou were experiencing ups and downs?

I am 6 weeks post and remaining optimistic but have, too, been experiencing some ups and downs. Was there something that distinctly happened to allowed you to turn a corner? We're or are you on any men's? Thanks.

[Sillysunshine in reply to missyf323]

Definitely was discouraged. I and the electrocardiologist thought it didn’t work. After 4 months things settled down. I still have a missed beat every 4th beat but I can’t feel it. But so far no more af. It’s so lovely and I sleep better. I can even have a alcohol drink or a coffee with no problems.

Thanks for your response; much appreciated. I have not ever taken meds until the flecainide post ablation and will be finishing them up this week; then the truth will be revealed! My heart rate leans toward lower than higher so really just needed the antiarrythmics for a bit...hoping for the best and, again, many thanks.

[Sillysunshine in reply to missyf323]

All the best to you. Hope you have a lovely Christmas 🎄

[missyf323 in reply to Sillysunshine]

Many thanks and right back at you! Best, Missy

[Sillysunshine in reply to missyf323]

No meds. Use to be. I stopped the meds long before the ablation. They didn’t work for me. Tried 4 beta blockers and 1 calcium channel blocker.

Great news!

I'm 7 months post ablation for afib and flutter. I pushed things too fast in the first couplke of weeks and needed a cardiversion to settle my, then racing, heart. Since then, like you, I've been fine, as far as I can tell.

All the best!
