Thanks for all of the prayers and well wishes, Well, the Ablation was not the success that I initially thought but only time will tell. I've been in AFIB since Sunday. Saturday Morning, I developed shortness of breath and it got serious fast. At 10 AM I called 911. They arrived and their diagnosis was Congestive Heart Failure because of a buildup of fluid in my lungs. They took me to a local hospital and I was just released at 5:30 PM yesterday. On Sunday I was told that I had Pneumonia in the right lung and they started IV antibiotics. The Pneumonia kicked my butt and still is. I'm home, dead tired, and connected to an Oxygen generator but last night I slept in my own bed. I'm on the mend but that may take a while.
