Guest guest Posted June 16, 2004 Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 Hi, I had my ablation May 10th, too. The first few weeks I flipped in and out of AF. The doctor told me this was normal. Lately, no AF that I am aware of but an occ. flutter, even though that was suppose to have been taken care of during the ablation. I have lots of PAC's but they may even be lessening a bit. Hard for me to tell. My doc says it will be at least three months before reducing my meds, Norpace, Verapamil and Atenolol. I think we both are much too impatient. Several people that have had ablations say that it really is closer to six months before they felt well enough to consider themseves cured. I for one am ready to give this a chance. Good luck.

But your 100% correct in thinking we are much to impatient. Want to get on with a normal life. Thanks Again Steve > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
