Just a quick update,

1 year 3 Months since my 3rd Ablation, still in NSR, so far so good, still get the odd Ectopic but getting less,

Could all go Pear shaped but so far so good, I'm 63 and work full time as a Gardener, Up Ladders, pushing barrows, Cutting Hedges no problem with breathing,

Paid off pushing for the 3rd Ablation

That’s great news Higgy, just what I need to hear as I’m on the list for my third ablation. I hope that you stay well.

Hi Higgy52. I am three months behind you for third ablation. I tried to get off Propafenone 300mg x 2 at 10 months but stayed only 6 days in sinus when AF hit. I immediately took Propafenone and was back in sinus in 4 hours. I have continued to take Propafenone. Are you on any anti- rhythmic pills?
