Cant get heart rate up.

Question

Asked for Female, 41 Years

I just had an ablation a little over a month ago for aflutter/afib. Since then when ever I exert myself I can not get my heart rate to compensate. For instance the other day I walked 50 feet and then climbed 4 flights of stairs and then walked another 20 feet and my heart rate climbed to a whooping 101. I was very short of breath for a good 10 minutes. Is this normal or something I should be concerned with?
