Possible heart failure

I am Sewing Scissors and have had an Ablation for Atrial Flutter on Feb 14th. Apparently it was successful but I have recently been to see my GP as I have become breathless again and very tired. She wants me to have some investigations including a blood test and Echo as she suspects heart failure. I have had so much help from the AF forum and hope this new forum can help me too. Thank you very much. Liz

So many have had Ablations for A.F. I've never been offered one but it maybe simply because they don't do them in my local hospital even though there is a cardiac ward and department. The waiting list for the hospital that does is long so I've seen people waiting in beds to be sent as soon as they can be treated though it could take weeks. So I think they are hoping I will be ok on meds.
