Carey thanks for answering and considering what happened here. I find it remarkable that pneumonia develops in hours without exposure unless it was from the inside out - meaning, saline, heparin and ablation debris ended up in lungs. What accounts for 12 oz + of blood being coughed up? BTW this is what they measured. I filled several towels and coffee cups with blood that wasn't accounted for.

The study that showed 4% was for cryoablation.

Other research I've found shows that debris is created in 100% of ablations - whether it ends up causing complications like blood in lungs or stroke is another story.

I'm wondering if I am a uniquely prolific creator of debris. And could it have been caused by supplements which I stopped 2 weeks prior to procedure but maybe should have been off longer? Things like coq10, fish oil, fisetin, or other items which I was not taking but would act similarly; eg serrapeptase or nattokinase

Carey, where does all of the blood in lungs come from?

Wouldn't debris (small particles) go from right atrium into lungs and cause those complications?

You put a lot more faith in doctors than I do.

If MDs knew WTF they were doing, this forum wouldn't even exist.

A very long time ago, January 2003, in Bordeaux, I had an ablation and touch up under sedation rather than anaesthetic. It was very comfortable, no problems, and I quite enjoyed sleepily watching the flickering wires on the monitor above my head.
Don’t know what the current practice is in Bordeaux.
Still in nsr after almost 18 years. Most EPs in those days wouldn’t even try to ablate longterm persistent AF, which I had had for 18 months. Think I hit the jackpot!!
