Just had my second cryo-ablation two days ago-- First was performed in January 2022 which is apparently successful (pulmonary veins). Second was required for Atrial Flutter in the right atrium but while in there mapped the heart and found two other areas in the left that he did also. Was as outpatient - procedure was about three hours with recovery about the same and all is well at this time. IN at 11:30 (1 hour of prep) 12:30 surgery and home by 6:30.

That was great, thanks. Any other factors that may have weighed on your decision to go the Cryo route would be interesting. Was it simply the way your EP was most comfortable doing it?

still have to take metoprolol and Eliquis afterwards?
