I came across your post and I got so excited for you!   Sounds like things went really well.  I'm soooo happy for you.  Now get some rest but definitely keep us updated.

I don't understand why your arms hurt. Stomach upset too? I've had 3 ablations (my second one lasted 7 hours lab time plus the annoying recovery time of several more hours). I'm sorry you felt so terrible afterwards but that's unusual.

Glad it's over. Be patient with the recovery. It takes at least 2 months for the heart to heal. You may feel some flutters now and then but they convert back to NSR quickly. In the meantime, take care and rest up.
