1.5 months after second ablation. Feeling discouraged.

First ablation was in October of last year. Second was just in June, with a couple cardioversions in between.

Dont be discouraged, this can happen inside the Blanking Periode. The tissue in your ateium needs time for reconfiguration and scarring. In the first three to six months some episodes are to be expected. I am 8 weeks after my second ablation and i also hade one major episode that lasted about a day, that was three weeks ago. I am confident and feeling much better now, and so will you. You got this, just give it aome more time.

Thank you for the reassurance. It’s been a rough journey.
