Thank you! Good you are getting an ablation - it’s really worth it - my quality of life has improved overall except for the small amount of anxiety early mornings - but I’m a worrier and over thinker so this probably causes it. I spoke to my surgeon yesterday and he said I’m fine and not to worry. My heart pulse was in the normal range. I’ve started taking “Calm Magnesium gummies” to help with any stress and I can feel they are helping. I’m sure you will do well having your ablation - take care and keep in touch. xo

My husband and I went on vacation to France in June; he had a bike accident there, got a pneumothorax and spent five days in ICU. We were then forced to stay in France another two weeks after the chest tube came out before we could safely fly home. Talk about stress! Hospital stay, major communication issues, severe heat wave, finding a place to stay, finding a way to get medications refilled, laundry done, grocery store for cooking, transportation, insurance paperwork, cancelled airline tickets, small town 90 miles from Paris--the list goes on! But we made it and if that didn't trigger an attack of A-fib, I don't know what would. So stress can sometimes be a good thing because I didn't have time or energy to worry about my condition; and surprisingly I never missed a beat in all the time we were there--30 days! You will make it; try not to worry and just enjoy the your success. I am really looking forward to getting this done! I'll let you know!
