I had (and still have) no concerns about an ablation. I really pushed to have the ablation procedure done. I am big on fixing the problem (doing ablation) rather than just dealing with the results of the problem (lots of meds).

I went to UC Health in Denver because they use Pulse Filed Ablation (PFA). Less intrusive and higher success rate. I would really recommend that you go to a facility that does the PFA. While the other methods work, PFA is a far better procedure.

The only concerns I have are if they will think I need to try an anti-arrhythmic drug first. I don't want to try any more drugs. My second concern is that I want a pulse field ablation since they are less likely to harm surrounding tissue and they are done in less time than the radiofrequency ablation. Lastly, I am 79 and I am concerned that they will think I am too old to be concerned about this condition ruining my quality of life. It seems lately that everything boils down to "you're old so you just have to expect these things!"
