Hi
I had ablation as well as valve repair surgery 6 months ago. I too have had a resting heart rate since of usually 80-100. 80-90 during the day but it seems to go higher when I sleep or lie down.
I had been taking Cardizem before surgery
( nasty nasty drug) which kept my then heart rate under control .....which would go into the 140s when not medicated
In the end everyone is different but as the other woman said 80-90 heart rate is still within normal limits for resting although over 100 isnt
Ablation doesnt seem to cure everything,but perhaps can help to some extent. Right now Im off the Cardizem which is fabulous. Cardiac drugs are All Horrible.
This is all new to me so dont know how things pan out in the end. They told me it can take up to a year for the ablation to take full effect
Lots of question marks. Its all a work in progress. I still dont have my former stamina
