    Hi, you should keep in touch with your Dr (at least Cardiologist and better still EP). Especially if you feel it's changed or you are unwell.

    Blood tests are up to your Dr, however as some here will testify, you sometimes need to be firm about what you expect from your Dr.

    Was an Ablation mentioned?
