Atrial Fibrillation (AFib) Support Group
Atrial fibrillation (AF or afib) is an abnormal heart rhythm (cardiac arrhythmia) which involves the two small, upper heart chambers (the atria). Heart beats in a normal heart begin after electricity generated in the atria by the sinoatrial node spread through the heart and cause contraction of the heart muscle and pumping of blood.
Had to go on Multaq for 4 months post ablation. Now the only heart med I take is diltaziem.
My procedure was routine. But I remember feeling fatigued for 4-5 weeks post ablation. My emotions were affected for several weeks, too.
You will get back to normal.
Good luck, and keep us posted.
I had a cryoablation on October 15 and so far have only had one 5 to 10 minute period with a premature heartbeat and I started to exercise again a week after the procedure.
Hope things improve quickly for you. Is there any medication they can give you to calm your heart?
