If you're still there, ask her to join here AND afibbers.org and to place her situation before the membership at each place. We should encourage her to find an EP and to have the ablation. Or, maybe she just needs a competent cardiologist to prescribe her a medication that is suitable. But it sounds like she needs a 21st Century doctor.

I am 83 and just had pfa. So far so good. By far the worst part was lying flat for 3 hours. But other than being very tired, I'm fine and expecting to go on a 4 week trip overseas in 13 days. So good luck.

79 and just had an ablation - the surgeon said at my age there’s an 85% success rate. If you can have it done - go for it! I had AFib for nine years and what a difference! 😊
