Thanks. I do not want to take over this good post but will say I have convinced my Dr. to not put me back on thinners even tho I fell back into Afib a month ago and it is still going on. Guess we will have that abla talk next visit... I've heard that many hospitals only have antidotes for warfarin and not Elequis or xarelto... both of which I was on at different times & I am prone to cutting myself doing mechanical and chain saw things...

I strongly recommend ablation. For nearly 5 years I suffered debilitating episodes of A-fib, to the point where I was afraid to go hiking or on long trips, and I would hardly let my wife out of my sight. Life as I knew it was over, but I was afraid to get an ablation. Finally I had had enough, and went for it. The first ablation wasn't aggressive enough and my athletic heart grew the offending tissue back, so nothing changed. But once the cardiologist knew what he was dealing with, he was much more aggressive the second time, and and the procedure was a great success. He gave me my life back
