I had my Ablation

After some hesitation I had my Ablation done on Thursday 4-23...I was very fortunate to have it done at one of best places in the US. I am not sure if it is appropriate to post the Doctors name here but I am confident in his ability. I have felt great ever since, no real discomfort, an occasional population-- maybe? my HR is very well controlled and is sitting in the 50's and 60's while relaxing moving about gets me into the 70's and if its a little more the 80's I did go to 128 playing with my dog but it quickly came back down when I stopped----should not have been feeling so good.

I have not really been to tired, no real issue with shortness of breath, I am feeling great and hope this will be a first step in a "healing" I had been in afib since January with well controlled HR and since I had been on a blood thinner since July my calculated stoke risk was low which is why I stayed in afib until the ablation, which I am told "may" help with the success of it. Thanks to all here and much grace to those who are battling this affliction ---I know this is not a cure but a management treatment

thank you. I had the blurry vision it mentions yesterday and it was a bit concerning----seems better today

I think all and all I am doing well. I cannot really even find my incision point, they used a new closure method and I have no bruising and only a slight amount of pain
