Hi all

Just to let you know I still keep an eye out for your posts, It's been 4years now since my RF ablation and I am very pleased to report that I am still AF free apart from a few ectopic's which I treat with magnesium turate I am in great shape.

if anyone is in doubt about having an ablation I say go ahead, if my AF returned, I would be straight round to the doctors to get another ablation ASAP.

I wish you all good luck and good health

Keep up the good work Bob, I'm sure your knowledge and experience of AF has helped many people including me

Good news to hear Brizzy. Where did you have your ablation carried out, if you don't mind me asking?

Good to see this as many feel conflicted about having ablation. I had my 2nd earlier this year. If I can be 5 years AF free it'll have been worth it!

Morning Brizzy, good to hear all is going well. I have been through ablation route and finally had a pacemaker and av node ablated in 2021. Feel pretty good and back to near normal too.I had mine done in Bristol too

That’s great to hear Brixton, how long were you in persistent AF for?

I had PAF for about ten years being treated with medication but got progressively worse, so ablation was the answer

Brizzy, it must have been about the same time I had my ablation at Bristol Heart Institute- November 2018. They certainly look after you and have the expertise. I read somewhere that were in the top 5. Go well.
