What downside have you experienced after an ablation?

I am 69 and have had an abib episodes every 2 months for a year; otherwise, I am healthy. I am approaching a decision to have an ablation and am assessing Pulsed Field Ablation vs. RF ablation and general anesthesia vs. deep sedation. I would love to know if you have experienced side effects such as tiredness, Hemolysis, Cardiac spasm, Gastric issues, Other. Have you tried to take medications such as Flacainade instead of having an ablation?
Thank you so much!
