[gigip812]

I just had an ablation on the 10th and quite frankly I feel horrible bruised groin and
sore and still have pressure in my chest??? Anyone with similar results?

Hi Jackie I had my ablation on the 10th and I just feel horrible.. pressure in my chest and very sore I'm told this is normal were you told the same or somewhat similar?

Thank you for getting back to me. I must say I'm shocked the dr's left your details out.. I'm a hairstylist who at times can put in up to 70 hrs a week,but I had to slow down prior to the ablation and I do feel exactly the same as I did before the ablation. And driving not so comfy..

The 10th?  That was Friday.  Heck yeah, you're going to feel not 100%  Go to Wikipedia and look up "Hematoma",  The picture shown was how my bruise looked except it was on the inside of my leg.  I had a lump about the size of a half orange.  It broke and drained into my leg, and took about 2 months to disappear  It drained all the way down to my knee.  You'll walk with a limp for a couple of weeks, and it's not uncommon to feel occasional wave of passing achiness in your chest.  I had mine done on a Thursday and was back to work by Wednesday.  You're going to feel the after effects for a year or more.  If you're not already feeling, it's no uncommon for the heart to become a bit jumpy during the healing process.  You may swear that the procedure was a failure, and that you're worse off now than before.  Then it will begin to settle down.  It too me over a year before I stopped getting little 6-12 beat runs of SVT.  Hang in there as it will get better.
