Hi , now one week after my ablation 14/3/25 , showing signs of a fib trying to come back , I had been an afiber persistent for a couple of years now ,I had been electro cardioverted 6months ago & in NSR for a week then the A fib came back, I'm hoping this isnt history repeating itself
good luck everyone!
its early. Be patient and be gentle with yourself. Best wishes.🙏
It's very early days after your ablation. Not everyone is immediately AF-free for many months or even years -- including me.
It's been six and a half months since my ablation. I was in normal rhythm for the first three weeks after the op, then had an episode of fast AF that sent me to hospital, followed by wearing a two-week monitor that showed enough AF to put me back on the list for another ablation (there will be a long wait; I've not had it yet). Six months of bouncing in and out, in and out of AF. But I've been in NSR for around 30% of the time, which is better than being in persistent AF for more than a year, as I was before the ablation. Not enough to stop taking the drugs.
Things are still changing. This is my third week of NSR (with some short-lived overnight episodes that resolve themselves by the morning), for the first time since September.
Give it some time to settle down. Don't push yourself. Good luck.
Back in/out AFib 5 months post ablation
second ablation question
One month post AV node ablation
2 weeks post ablation
Two weeks post flutter ablation
