I am about 6 weeks out from ablation. Many times when I exert myself I get irregular rhythm. When I sit it stops. The Kardia says the irregular rhythms are "possible afib" and the EP office says they are PACs. I had a brief conversation with the nurse who gets my (45 a day) portal messages. I understand that you can't "undo" the ablation but I forgot to ask, if I "push it" can it turn those PACs into afib? Ie should I be taking it easy-- or pushing it. I am not an athlete (with other congential issues) but I have always been active. And so I am struggling with that part of it. I mean if I go into afib or flutter I have meds on board but I wonder maybe I should watch more Netflix, wait for it to heal more. But I am tired of not cooking, not walking etc.. The nurse put me on the schedule for a virtual with the EP on Monday before his day starts formally so I will be talking to him but I thought if I write this out there, you guys could also give me some good questions to ask and things to clarify. (This is my 2nd ablation. First was in feb .. I developed flutter from that. The second took care of two flutter lines and another fib or same fib area. I don't have the formal report .. that's another question). ps.. plus I am getting weaker and that doesn't seem like a good thing..
thanks
