I had an AV ablation seven years ago with a pacemaker but I'm still in Afib 90 percent of the time.

Are you aware that you are in Afib? Does it cause you any problems? Since the AV ablation does not stop Afib, how does it help?

My husband is have this procedure done tomorrow and he is scared. I have read bad and good things about it. His EP stated that is the last resort to his consistent flutter and weaking of his heart. His EP is the best and he couldn't be in no better place than Mayo but it's only human for him to feel this way.
Can you elaborate as to quality of life after your AV Node Ablation?
