Thanks for the info, however, I have had Afib for years now, in fact I first had it before the ablation procedures came into being, so I know all the stuff you told me. Thanks again, and I have no bad symptoms, no dizziness, no faintness etc. but I do have to take coumadin and be tested monthly, would like to get rid of that if possible.
Also my mother has atrial fib. I wish that she would have the procedure so she could go off of coumadin and be able to do more.
I'm going off-topic here; have you had an honest discussion with your cardiologist about the true necessity of coumadin?
I was caregiver to my late dad, and his numbers kept getting out of whack requiring blood tests a couple of times a week - and he'd gotten entirely too feeble to haul back and forth to the lab ---- I explained the dilemma to his doc and he just switched him to one baby aspirin a day.
End of situation, period. The local pharmacist concurred that this whole lab/coumadin thing is almost a "make work" scam.
