Hi! I’m 78 and have been told I have an 85% chance of the ablation being effective so after many years of palpitations and not being able to travel, etc. I feel it’s worth getting it done. And yes, I’m nervous but feel everything will work out - a lot of people say it’s an easy procedure. Deep breath, be brave and just do it. I’ll let you know how it went after March 4th. xo

If you have never had an ablation it’s natural to be apprehensive about the upcoming procedure. It really is a non event in terms of any discomfort or pain. You check in, spend some time waiting till they’re ready for you and the next thing is you’re waking up and waiting to be released. It does take up a good part of a day so bring your phone or a book. Best wishes and let us know how it turns out.
