Forums can be helpful whether it’s about medical issues or you car etc. We should always keep in mind they are just a snapshot and whilst they can be helpful they can also cause distress . I read some awful accounts before my ablation that could have deterred me from having the procedure. I didn’t and I’m pleased I went ahead .

Listen to your medical people is the best and safest way to move forward . Having said that I’ve read some posts that have been very positive and offered good generic advice .

Listen to your medical people absolutely but remember they are only human too and therefore do your own research to be able to ask the right questions, challenge and get to the right answer for you. My EP advised me not to have a mini maze yet research (peer reviewed studies) said that was best for persistent afib as did my second opinion.
