Hi! I live in Canada and have had AFib since 2016. I have been under the care of a cardiologist and have had more frequent episodes of fibrillation. I have been booked for a catheter ablation but because of our lousy healthcare system I have to wait for a date for three to six months. Apparently it’s due to lack of gov’t funding. I am 78 and the prognosis is good since I’m healthy other than the AFib. The palpitations are becoming more frequent so I will be glad to get the surgery done.

Sorry to hear it's going to take so long for an appointment. Hopefully sooner than later. You're not the first I've heard from regarding the time lag in Canadian appointment scheduling. Whenever it happens, wishing you luck for a successful ablation that lasts permanently. Please keep us updated. 😁
