Headaches I had an ablation on October 30th and had a right Pulmonary Vein Isolation done. They had to do a transseptal puncture to get to the left atrium. Right away after I got ocular migraines that I have never had before. The ocular migraines have subsided and I guess were related to the transseptal puncture, but now I am finding that I am getting headaches every night that last until morning. They are fairly bad headaches, enough to mess with my sleep. This is new since the ablation. Any thoughts? https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,197964,197964#msg-197964 Wed, 23 Sep 2026 10:11:29 +0000 Phorum 5.2.23 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,197964,198026#msg-198026 Re: Headaches https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,197964,198026#msg-198026 Nancy9 AFIBBERS FORUM Mon, 25 Nov 2024 23:57:37 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,197964,198020#msg-198020 Re: Headaches https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,197964,198020#msg-198020 MeganMN AFIBBERS FORUM Mon, 25 Nov 2024 18:15:07 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,197964,198005#msg-198005 Re: Headaches https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,197964,198005#msg-198005 MeganMN AFIBBERS FORUM Sat, 23 Nov 2024 21:07:41 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,197964,198000#msg-198000 Re: Headaches https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,197964,198000#msg-198000

Abstract
Catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation creates an iatrogenic atrial septal defect by transseptal puncture, which may produce a transient right-to-left shunt. We encountered a 44-year-old man who presented with de novo migraine-like headache after cryoballoon ablation for atrial fibrillation. On reviewing the literature, we found additional cases in which migraine-like headache occurred within one week after the procedure and spontaneously within three months. We should recognize migraine-like headache as a potential complication of catheter ablation.
