Is 81 year old too old for ablation?

@9yellowbox - Thanks for your post. I have a couple of questions. What is your age? Have you ever had an ablation? Having A-fib almost the entire day would make me useless--unable to do anything. It just takes all my energy away. Mainly, I'm in arrhythmia and tachycardia daily. It sounds like the weight loss could be your answer. I'm 5'7" and only weigh 114. My weight issue is completely different from yours. Best of luck as you navigate your health.

I am 78. Won't do Ablation since it doesn't last. Won't put my body through temporarily helping. I am active for my age. Yes, you don't need to loose a lb. I was not heavy but ten lbs I lost is fine. I am on lowest dose to help my heart with Foundayo pill. Won't be loosing any more weight. Good luck

Im 78. Yes, you dont need to loose ten lbs. I wasnt more than 10 lbs excess. So my weight has never been an issue. I heard lots of good things about Foundayo and tried it. It did wonders for my BP. I am not excessively tired. Wont do Ablation because it dosent last. I did cardioversion lasted only few months. Won't keep being put out for short term results. Good luck to you.
