part two I am still recovering in Sept12.I am turning 60yo this year, was in perfect health, w/o in my pool 3 times a week etc. This setback not only made me lose 30 pounds because no one was around, I would not have done it again and mainly because a pill will do the trick.I can still get a stroke, they did not clean out my arteries. I am on no blood thinners.So you need to weigh the odds, every person is different but my MD was excellent, NYU s**ks and weigh the odds

PART ONE I went through an ABLATIA procedure at NYU.I have been POZ for over 32 yrs&counting, a bout with Cancer in 2006, treated with 6 rounds of Chemo.Now all that history & I enter into the ablatia territory.If you don't know,it's for hearts that are AB FIB or miss a beat/ beat uncontrollably for periods..First,don't go to NYU unless you have mucho help waiting at home, I was ALONE!
