Depends what the arrhythmia is. I had an ablation in 2013 for SVT by a doctor in NY. I was in overnight because I had a vascular scan done the next day. They go through your femoral artery in your groin. You don’t feel anything related to the ablation. I had back pain from laying in the table for an hour. Had to do follow ups frequently for 6 months and then every 6 for 2 years. Now I go annually. Have not had any issues since and the arrhythmia is gone.

Definately find a doctor that has done these before. He should be a Electrophysiology which is the electrical system of your heart not a vascular which deals with the vessels and blood flow.
