I am wondering if you might have gotten into a trigger or two... like caffeine, salt, dehydration, alcohol, msg/flavor enhancers, overexertion? I suspect that even after an ablation one should still consider triggers and general health to stay away from our 'edge'. Just a thought. Jeff

I was told by my NP that with age and genetic disposition it’s possible one can get new hotspot firings that were never ablated or exist beforehand and cause an af episode. So how can the cage be monkey proof?

That's true, but in that case it's not that the monkey escaped. It's more like you acquired a second monkey and so now you'll need to add a new cage.

Don't panic yet. After my first ablation, I went 13 years before my afib came back, but during that time, I had 4 breakthroughs scattered over that time period, all short lived. Then finally a big surge and another ablation. Disappointing for sure, but maybe just a small bump in a long road.

Carey,
I loved your simplification of the afib ablation situation as building a fence in front of a crazy monkey to stop him from escaping and do whatever he wants of destructions to his host.
How can you describe in the same analogy the effect of anti-arrhythmic drugs especially the famous flecainide.
