Thanks to everyone who responded to my question and reassured me! After taking my second Flecainide cut in half to 50 MG, I went back into rhythm. I always know when this happens. My whole body gets very calm. As I said in my post...I am aware and feel everything going on with my heart. I wear a heart link monitor under my skin and when I go into Afib I absolutely know it and my cardio team who monitors the heart link confirms it.

I am feeling a little better about the ablation. There really is no other choice and I want to live a quality life. I am only 66 years young and very active and still work. The upper part of my heart on one side is starting to get larger. This was noticed after my last echo.

Kristin...I learned tapping 15 years ago. It is great and easy to do. It actually does calm you down. I had forgotten about it. Thank you for reminding me.

I will keep everyone up to date and post about my ablation in hopes that it helps someone out there who is facing a decision or the actual procedure just like me.

This Mayo Connect has been such a blessing for me. Everyone is so quick to help and reassure.

Blessings to everyone and stay safe.

Yippee!! I am so glad I mentioned it - I am using tapping to "manage" all my caregiver stress and I have even got my mother hooked on Tapping - too... it is so great to have something you can "do" whenever you are feeling stress and anxiety - tapping before bed is my new normal and WOW! the sleep I am getting - amazing!! Cheers! K

@cece55 Great to hear and we look forward to hearing more after you procedure.
Blessings
