Yes it was. It takes about three mos for heart to get adjusted but AFib is down to about .5% burden if that. I m doing great. Very happy I did it.

Congrats on your success !
Did your doc use Catheter & Cryo or both ? Do you know if an EP study (mapping) was done first to find all the bad actors? What is .5 % burden - how measured?
Whatever used worked for you. I will be looking for second ablation with afib, flutter & pacs. Hoping no 2 will get it as do not want to go drug route.

The funny thing is have no symptoms. Feel fine & completely unaware had this condition. Keep wondering if this heart is so burdened, inefficient why unnoticed ? Maybe someone has heard an explanation?
