Yes, I had the procedure May 2024. The procedure went very well and recovery was easy. I did however end up going into Afib a couple of months afterwards. Ended up in the ER where I had a cardioversion that zapped me right back into rhythm. None of my docs could figure out why. One did say it might have just been my body rejecting the new device in my heart. I’ve had No problems since.
I wish you good luck and I hope you have improvements with your oxygen.

Thx for your response.
I did notice in the literature on the procedure that Afib is a known possible side effect.
Glad it did not recur.
Did your cardiologist require and retesting before your procedure. Mine is requiring a transesophicus Ecco., TEE
I’m just awaiting insurance approval
