Hello Colleen, no, I'm actually not a patient at Mayo. We live in Apple Valley (near Burnsville, south of Twin Cities. I was just wondering if any of the EPs at Mayo require anticoagulation for a month before they will do ablation.

@mclare, thanks for explaining. I'm sure other members, like @karenatmayo @rubywitch67 @danab @rainyday541 @thumperguy @razorclams will respond with their experiences regarding anticoagulation and ablation.

You may also wish to contact Mayo Clinic to inquire directly. Here's a link to the contact information http://mayocl.in/1mtmR63

I certainly understand your concern about potential risks: bleeding, stroke, etc. You want to feel comfortable and confident in your care.

Hi @mclare I have had an ablation at Mayo Phoenic but I was not on any blood thinners as my problem was ventricle in nature and typically does not have pooling of blood in the lower chamber like in your case of afib. Sorry I cant help. Afib is pretty common so I'm sure others may be able to help with your question
Blessings
