I have had Atrial Fibrillation for over 30 years. I have a pacemaker fitted and have been offered a procedure called Ablate and Pace I wondered if anyone has had it and what their experiences are.

If you go onto the AF Association site on Health Unlocked you will find that several members have had the Pace/Ablate procedure and will be able to share their experiences.

Good luck!

I had my pacemaker fitted September last year and the AV node ablation in November. I can now walk 3-4 miles a day and can no longer feel my AF although I’m now in it 100% of the time.
