Pacemaker recipients: Looking for support from others

I have a 100 percent dependent pacemaker and have had a AV node ablation. The Ablation was completed 9/2718. I am feeling well. Had been allergic to all afib meds due to a blood disorder. Some problems having to go slowly reducing the predisone I was on, but am dealing with this well.

@lacudia Hello - I was wondering how you are doing after the AV node ablation and pacemaker implant. I find that most pacemaker recipients have it because of bradycardia or some sort of heart block. I am particularly interested in dual chamber PMs meant for Afib and flutter and how it all works. My EP is advocating it as a last resort should all the other options - 3rd ablation, propafenone, amiodarone, etc. does not work. Thanks.
