@gloaming thank you for your reply. I guess I really had my hopes up after reading that FPA had an 80% success rate and since I was not in Afib constantly I hoped I would have successful results. So maybe as you say time will tell. Even though I am on 50 mg Flecinide 2x per day they have still ordered a holster for me. Guess we will see

@tomandpatti I hope it turns out for the better. It's early, and if it turns out that you still have runs of tachyarrhythmia, you can always get another ablation...maybe even look for another EP and give that person a go. My first ablation did not work, but the second did. Same EP, same RF energy, and I'm just into my 38th month in a week. Ablations DO work...all the time....but not the first time about 20-25% of the time. It's a bummer, but second ablations have a higher success rate.
