flutter abulation

by 48NFIBBING, Sep 06, 2009 09:59AM
I had a flutter abulation done 2 days ago. The doctor got the fluter however, during the procedure Iwent into AF and they did an inversion but my rythm did not go back to normal. I did have AF about a year ago but flecainide had stopped it or controled it up until the flutter abulation.
I remember asking the Dr. in post op if this was normal and he said no and to see him in 2 months.
Not what I expected from the flutter abulation.
Anyone have similar experience?

When he saw the a-fib, why didn't he ablate it? I know it is more difficult to ablate a-fib, but that would have made sense to me. I had an ablation done for both a-fib and a-flutter in January 08. I've been in NSR ever since.
