Specializes in Pain Management

Probably normal, but: Your system is accomodating the changes in your cardiovascular system induced by the ablation. Unless the light-headedness and fatigue are severe, I would give it a few days. You could let your Physician know what's happing; but If not improving, follow up with your PCP and/or cardiologist.
