After much discussion. Scans. I had an appointment with cardiologist. Signed consent papers will have an ablation before Christmas. The thing that really cheered. Me up is that I will be off most of the meds

What great news for you - look forward to hearing how you get on. Take it easy for a week or so afterwards and I'm sure you'll be good to go 👍

I think sleep is important after an ablation - it's important to rest up. I'll have a word with Santa and ask him to be very quiet when he calls round with your prezzies ;-)

Good luck.

Good news, how do you feel about your ablation being carried out so soon? Do you have support at home for afterwards. Will look forward to hearing how it all went.

Really pleased for you. I had my second one 4.5 weeks ago and had been told it wouldn’t be until January/February at earliest. When I got the call 2 weeks later with 2 weeks notice, like you it couldn’t come quick enough. Rooting for you.......and your long suffering wife and daughter. You must be on Santa’s good list and he’s brought your present early. xxx 🎅🏻
