Post ablation and high BP

Tikaneko profile image
4 Replies

Following my ablation in July my BP dropped significantly, enough for GP to drop my meds by half. But the last few weeks it has slowly climbed and seems tot be getting worse even though I have started Magnesium which I had hoped would prevent it from getting higher. Has anyone else experienced this? If so do you think it will calm down again? Hope you are all keeping well. X

Hi Tikaneko, what is your BP reading now?

Mine went from high with medication to lowish 110/75 and no medication following ablation. I don’t understand why but obviously very pleasing.

The highest has been 160/101 lowest now is 132/80. I used to have low BP then since being diagnosed it’s been all over the place. I understand why it would be unstable with AF but i don’t understand why following ablation it dropped then has started to rise.
