@jih123 I had an ablation and pacemaker implanted within a month of each other. I too felt especially wiped out while I was in the blanking period and a little beyond that. I called the device clinic several times during that period and they reassured me everything was ok. I was able to carefully go back to my routine- exercise 2x a week, clean my house, grocery shop. Recovery time depends on many variables- age, degree of heart condition, fitness before procedure. Keep in touch with your doctors, noting any issues you may have. And maybe keep a diary of your activities and how you feel. You may be surprised to find you are improving albeit one step at a time. Hope you feel better soon.
