ablation #3

I had my 3rd heart ablation on 7/19/12 my question is my 4th day I still have cramping/burning discomfort on both sides of the groin.  I feel the heart paplitations again, shortness of breath walking a short distance. my chest feels as it "water logged feeling" heavy as I breath in. as well as fatigue, light headed. I started getting the sweats when Im clammy and or my body is cold to touch. discomfort on the lower back and across the shoulder. I do not want to call the doctor if this is all normal. please advise on the after effects from the ablation. how long does it take for all to be goood/ thank you so so  much

I agree, the doc works for YOU! You need to call them and make sure they at least note your chart and see what they would like you to do. I have heard of discomfort but the light headed etc.. I don't think you should be having that.

Wow, with so much going on after a procedure, why don't you give your doctor's office a call. They may say they'd like you to come in for a quick check. It's definitely worth a phone call. Take care.
