Should I consider ablation?

I posted my story just a few hours before yours - see JohnDL. I'll add to this additional information based on what I understand is your situation (please understand I'm not a doctor). I had one ablation before the one that worked. The one that worked for me required the ablation to be performed in the left chamber. Since the doctor enters the heart thru the right chamber he "poked" a hole between the two chambers (it is something this group developed as I understand it). Check around as one must find a doctor who can do what you need done.

Thanks so much for the info. All Ive had to listen to has been Doctors who seem to take forever to come up with a plan, then not giving me info on the plan. Ive had 2 episodes since the ablation but very short and not as intense. But no word of a plan going forward. I guess i will have to insist on some answers. I have several other problems going on butt I can't go into them right now I'll get back to you as things move along thanks again for your help.

Thanks for your comments. I have heard from several people of that it has<br>taken more than one ablation to stop the AFib so I am talking to my Dr<br>about the whole situation I also have COPD and diabetes and late discovery<br>of iron deficiency so things have gotten complicated with Dr and getting<br>them all together to decide on a course of action. You are right I have to<br>be aware of the things going on and that involves asking questions and<br>hopefully getting answers. Thanks again for your comments I'll let you know<br>how things go.
