Of course no ones' case is exactly the same but the 2 people I do know who've had the ablation done are absolutely ecstatic with the results.
Confidence and Good vibes to you, along with a few dragonettes to amuse and occupy you during your wait and convalescence.

Best wishes, Kayelle. Based on my own experience with surgery over the years, I have no doubt everything will be fine and you'll be happily fussed over by the Sous Chef in no time.
Try not to think about it too much. I've been going to sleep using a meditation app for years. I've noticed that the practice of meditation stays with me when I'm about to have a procedure, or having one where I'm awake the whole time, like an MRI. It's very soothing.

Thinking of you Kay, and sending heartfelt and healing thoughts for a quick recovery! My mom felt 1000% better after her pacemaker surgery. Quick and easy these days, as you said. Hugs and loves, and hoping to hear from you or the Sous very soon!

Hope Kay is doing well....

Well, one week at work. I laughed at them when they asked if I was starting back part time. I wish now I had said, "yes". I'm exhausted, physically, mentally and emotionally. I ended up leaving early 4/5 days. Other than shopping for groceries tomorrow, I am sleeping all weekend.
I'm glad you will be using the weekend to take care of yourself. Have you told them part time yet?
Yes, for one week. Can't afford any more than that. As it is, my parents are paying my bills and buying my groceries.

{{PF}} You've really been through it..wish you could get really well soon.
Many thanks to all of you for keeping me in your thoughts and prayers.
There's good news and bad news to my Pacemaker story. Good news is I'm doing well now that I'm back home, and the pacemaker is working right.
The bad news was the pain I had during the surgery. Apparently I'm one of the very few who experienced intense pain with this procedure, even though I have a very high pain tolerance. Whatever sedation they gave me didn't work, as I never even felt relaxed. Worse than that, was the local anesthetic for pain didn't work properly either and I did plenty of complaining about how much it was hurting. It took about an hour to complete, and when it was finally over, I told the Dr. I never expected to be in pain like that.
His response was "there shouldn't have been any pain." I wanted to smack him. I KNOW how painful it was for me and I'm furious with that response.
Anyway, it's over and I'm glad.
