My son's af
Today he saw his gp again, and has been referred to the cardiologist for the possibility of a
catheter
ablation
! I'm not sure of the timing here, but he seems quite happy about it. He just checked in with me that it wouldn't kill him, and now refuses to talk about it at all.

LAAO - Surrey meeting Feedback
The procedure itself takes less than an hour and follows a similar process to a
Catheter
Ablation
, however, the total time including preparation and recovery could be around 4 hours and may require an overnight stay.

Advice sought with SVT & exercise
I've had daily episodes of SVT (usually around five or six episodes a day) for as long as I can remember and I'm now on a waiting list to have
catheter
ablation
. I also suffer with very pronounced ectopic beats which can aggravate my SVT.

Bisoprolol
Cardiologist is steering me towards
catheter
ablation
but I'm not keen and don't want to be bullied into this. I would prefer a pacemaker but my cardiologist says no. I'm in a quandary and getting to the point I just don't know what to do anymore.

Catheter ablation update
For everyone that wanted me to keep updating the ablation was a piece of cake honestly an svt episode is more scary than the surgery ! And well everything went so well they got the piece they needed to fix and my ep said I should have svt again he said mine was so easy to find just normal svt I think

Or surgical
ablation
, he said
catheter
ablation
will almost certainly not work for me, having been persistent too long and surgical has a higher rate of success (?) and they would do a left atrial appendage exclusion at the same time to reduce my risk of stroke.

AF - Pre-Procedure Medication Concern
The consultant has suggested two options to consider; cardio 'shock' or
catheter
ablation
. Following the diagnosis, consultation and a bit of reading and given my age, I have almost decided which direction to take but am viewing both procedures as possible two-parters, twelve months apart.

One Month Post RF Pulmonary Vein Ablation
I had a successful radio frequency
catheter
ablation
on the 9 July 2014 at Bart's Hospital. Dr Mark Earley was able to isolate 3 of my 4 pulmonary veins. There's a 1 in 4 chance that the one vein he could not isolate turns out to be a trouble maker.

severe groin pain
Hi all. This is my second post/question. I've had AV node ablation 5 days ago. Yesterday I went out to see my GP. Following this I went to the shops. When I got home I felt ok. I then decided to lie down and when I got up for dinner I've felt severe groin and leg pain. I took paracetamol but didn't seem

Post pacemaker implant and AV node ablation
Hi all! I am new to this forum. I think I have always had atrial fibrillation but it has become prominent last year where I became more aware of my symptoms. I've been on a number of medications such as Bisoprolol, Digoxin and Warfarin but it seems the AF is not being controlled so I was then referred

Mini maze proceedure.
I've now been referred to the cardiac surgeons for a mini maze cryo proceedure by my EP, who has advised, I may need another
catheter
ablation
as well, in order to achieve full thickness scarring both inside and outside the atria.

I had a catheter ablation at the beginning of June last year for AF ,AT and atrial flutter . I had a follow up at 3 months and 6 months.
Is that it? Or should I expect other check ups ? I only ask because my local hospital (which is not the one I had the ablation at) has lost my notes on 2 previous occasions so if other appointments are needed I will request them. Fi
