Very Scared
My
Cryoablation
is scheduled to happen on Wednesday. Last week I convinced myself that I was going to cancel and then changed my mind again, I decided to do more research and now terrified of risks, dr day pointed out in an article that damage to the phrenic nerve is worse than AFib itself.

RF vs. cryoablation
My doc had suggested RF ablation, which I had done one month ago, but
cryoablation
sure has positive remarks/benefits, too. Http://www.heartracing.com/patients/rf.vs.cryoablation.asp http://www.piedmont.org/living-better/catheter-ablation-radiofrequency-vs-

Should I Ablate ?
As we discussed AF is progressive therefore the only choice that I have is catheter ablation ( balloon
cryoablation
) Now I am in dilemma , as my condition is by enlarge asymptomatic up to now ( 80-85 bpm for 48 hours), and up to today's date I can only confirm definitely two episodes of about eight

Opinions please
I haven't had an episode since April and am nervous about the decision I made to have a
Cryoablation
next week. I have PAF so not sure if this could mean I'm in remission or am I being too optimistic? Any opinions please as I'm very unclear with my decision, Gracey

Fatigue so easily post ablation
Hi all, am 6 weeks post
cryoablation
ablation. It went well and I recovered well. Had 2 weeks off work and took it very slowly and did not do much. What I am left with is a cough that is frequently hacking sounding and is there every day, some worse than others.

Ablate or not
There has been a lot of talk about ablations and since I'm scheduled for a
Cryoablation
this month I have been feverishly reading every post on the forum. I have been left with one question, the persons who have had
Cryoablation
, has anyone had PAF with less than six episodes a year?

Cough after cryoablation
So my question is whether a cough post
cryoablation
is quite a common side effect and what causes it and how long does it tend to last. My ablation was nearly two months ago.

Cyclist's experience 11 weeks post cryoablation, and cycling at altitude.
The
cryoablation
went fine but I was feeling a bit tender and had a sore throat from the TOE. I was very concious of everybodys advice about taking it easy and not overdoing things in the early weeks. However the problem for us sporty types is to define what is over doing it.

Cryoablation
I had a
cryoablation
last week on Wednesday and it seems to me that everything is going well . There is just one problem. My left arm is really bruised and hurts all the time.

Ablation # 2
I had my first
cryoablation
in March 2016 following a course of treatment with meds. I Was considered an excellent candidate and my EP felt the procedure went very well.

Cryoablation
I have scheduled a
Cryoablation
for October 19. I was expecting to feel very nervous but I'm actually relieved I've made the decision. My concern is, my daughter is recently engaged with a wedding scheduled for July1. There are parties and showers to also plan.

8 weeks - so far, so good!
Cryoablation
8 weeks ago and apart from one 12 hour period of rapid and sometimes, irregular heat beat, things are good. During that wobbly period, my Kardia recorded possible AF a couple times and unclassified at others.

Cryoablation Day 17
Feeling a lot better now and getting back to normal. No PAF apart from the odd ectopic. The worst problem was the sore throat, which has now eased. In the first 2 weeks I could tell if I over did it as I became tired and weak. Interestingly was not always due to a raised heart rate but when under self-imposed

Wednesday ablation postponed
EP phoned this afternoon to say my
cryoablation
needs to be postponed in favour of a further month of anticoagulation as I have some 'accumulation on my appendage' according to the TOE.
