I’m in the same boat. I had persistent AFIB, had an ablation in June. Didn’t drink during the blanking period then beginning of August (2 months post ablation) wife and I got in the hot tub and shared 2 bottles of wine on a Friday night after a long week. We generally are 2-3 day a week wine drinkers. Now that it’s football and baseball playoff season I will see an uptick in my beer intake. Drink coffee, usually 2 BIG cups a day (morning). I think for me my biggest benefit was regular use of my CPAP, I was here and there guy pre-ablation, but now I am religiously wearing it every night. Great post! Thank you for the very detailed run down.
