My experience of AF ablation

You had AF fibrillation which is eventually the thing that I think has improved your symptoms, tell us about that experience. Mixed if I'm going to be honest, the procedure was a special trial extra bit, I won't go into the details partly because I probably will get them wrong, it involved four hours being under a general anaesthetic and I think in terms of the procedure itself it went perfectly well, but subsequently I was very dehydrated, I drank a lot of water and my kidneys stopped functioning, my body gradually filled with water, my lungs filled, my brain swelled and there was a bit of a crisis and I think it took a long time for my heart and my body generally to get over that episode which is why December ablation, it wasn't and it wasn't really till May that I could feel with a bit of reasonable hope that I was back in sinus rhythm and a low heart rate. All in all, eventually success? Eventually, it seemed so far to be successful. I mean, I did have to have another cardioversion in March to kick me back, and that worked for a while, although my heart rate then started going up again about two weeks after. that the threat of seeing the consultant in May brought it down to 50, so I think just being threatened with an appointment with a consultant will probably put things right.
