Breathless post ablation

I had an ablation 2 weeks ago at St Thomas’ Hospital. They were pleased with how it went. I had to get myself back into the local A&E the night after as I had difficulty in breathing and says were low. Stayed in for 5 days, they think i’ve had a chest infection. Still breathless when walking around and upstairs. Is this normal.

In a normal rhythm with a couple of hiccups so far.
