Subrina, it takes time for our bodies to heal and 3 months seems like a long time but you do feel better each day. I am glad you did not need that transplant either. Hugs🤗

When I broke my foot in 2015 and because I was a diabetic the Doctor had said that it could take 6 months to a year for my foot to heal properly just think if I really had a heart transplant. That takes longer to heal. Thank God I did not have to have a transplant.

Catheter ablation is a procedure used to treat atrial fibrillation (AFib) by destroying the heart tissue that causes irregular heartbeats. According to my knowledge base, while catheter ablation can be initially successful, there is a chance that AFib can develop again. If this happens, your doctor may recommend trying the procedure again or suggest another option.

The time it takes for AFib symptoms to disappear after catheter ablation can vary. Some people may experience relief from symptoms almost immediately, while others might take a few weeks to notice improvement. It's important to follow up with your healthcare provider to monitor your progress and discuss any ongoing symptoms.
