Here is another update. I suffered my third aura migraine 3 days ago and the headache has not stopped. Sometimes the Tylenol helps, others times it does not. Doctors office suppose to call me back tomorrow about the headaches. My heart seems pretty settled. Still have ectopics, but less than just after the procedure. BP is good at 118/84 and HR of 87. Groins wounds healed up nicely, just waiting for the bruising to go away.

The bruising is a vere good guide to how your heart is healing so use it.

Sounds like all going in the right direction. The aura migraines will go away in a week or so, hopefully sooner and nothing I could take ever touched them.

Thanks CD. Good to know. Just had my fourth aura migraine today at day 10.

See this abstract for some limited information on post-ablation migraines. These are, apparently, uncommon but will usually settle:

Thanks Sam. I knew of this ablation side effect from this forum. However, I never thought I would be one of the lucky ones to actually experience it. :) The migraines have been decreasing in frequency and intensity, so hopefully will stop completely very soon.
