I’ve heard Andrea Natale from Austin is the best in the U.S. for Ablations

❤❤❤❤❤❤

Have you had any ablations?? Either for the SVT or afib? I hear the SVT ablations are very successful.

Great encouragement for living the way God intended us to live. 🙌

Great encouragement

Very good.

Thank you. I have been reading Ephesians 4 for a month now. It's great. God does make us new creations 😊

don't say 'ideas' - as in; watch this video and you'll be able to get some ideas (plural) for your pool. this is one 'idea' that you did..

I hope you and your doctors get this all sorted out.

Beautiful

I know how you feel. I had basically every type of arrhythmia you could think of. A-fib, a-flutter, SVT, PAC, PVC, and the original electrophysiologist I had couldn’t really do anything about it. They put me on several medications to try and help it, but they didn’t work. It wasn’t until I went into heart failure that I got moved to an electrophysiologist in Kansas City. He got me on some meds that stabilized me and got me out of heart failure, and I just went in for my first ablation last month. I’ll likely need another one at some point, but I already feel so much better

Howdy never hard for me to get up

Good morning to you

When it comes to major heartwork, the absolutely most important individual in the mix is the electrophysiologist. If you get negative vibes about the person, DO NOT PROCEDE. This is your heart that's involved and you don't want any hackers messing with it. I had an ablation last summer for my persistent afib. The team that performed the procedure was top shelf. They have over 4,000 procedures under their collective belt and that's what you want for experience. Additionally, in an adjoining state, is another fantastic team of doctors using AI that perform this work also. Yes, there ARE good ones out there.

I have A-fib and will be going for my 2nd Ablation in a week. I am doing a major lifestyle change hoping it will help. I quit smoking 10+ years ago; losing weight; do not use salt much and little to no caffeine and alcohol. I take the meds also and still I do get episodes of Afib. I holding out hope that the re-do ablation will help so I can get off the beta blockers meds, for they slow you down over time. Been on beta blockers for almost 10-years. So hang in there and hope for better times.

Glad everything is going good

I had my SVT procedure at UNC Rex on Feb 28th

How would you say this affects your sleep at night and what do you do to get a good night's sleep?

Yes, please make a video about your ablation procedure while being awake.

Do you experience palpitations everyday? I have SVT too and very bad anxiety now because of it. SVT and anxiety don’t mesh well together obviously. But I experience palpitations at least a few times every week. My svt attacks are usually only triggered by bending down for something or really high stress.

So happy for you ❤

I’m so glad you found a new Dr

You need to find another Dr!!! Don’t put up with that crap! My ablation was really horrible too. My SVT episodes got worse over the years and were almost everyday lasting hours. I was very symptomatic too. The ablation was not nice. You only have light sedation where I live. It was quite distressing. Get a new dr you deserve better and I’m very sorry it didn’t work out for you xx

Have you talked with Cardiologist of implanting a Loop Recording Device? I started with PVC's and then A-Fib. I have a loop recording device under skin and it records Tach/Brady/SVT/A-fib episodes so the doctor can see monthly what is happening. My A-fib burden has increased so I am going to have my 2nd Ablation. Hopefully that will stop the episodes and we can reduce the beta blocker meds. You might want to consider talking with doctor about a Loop Recording device. You don't have to carry with you any other devices and worry about if they are waterproof. You also don't have to hook them up during an episode either. Once a loop recording device is implanted the battery is good for 3 years and it stays on 24/7. You don't have to do nothing special. My insurance paid for the minimal procedure to implant it and the monitoring. Something to look into.

I’ve had good luck blowing hard against something that has no give to it. It usually puts the beats back in sync. I find caffeine is a reliable trigger, I need to only drink decaf. Have you been tracking your diet and exercise habits to see if you too might have specific triggers?

As much as I get you not wanting to bash him it would be really nice to know who to avoid, I’ve been having heart problems that no one seems to be able to diagnose or explain and it’s absolutely terrifying, I have episodes where my hands and feet are like ice, I feel tired, feels like my heart is skipping beats randomly, sometimes my heart rate is super fast and other times it’s so slow, I’ve had AFiB two or three times as well so it’s just all horrible, I often have trouble sleeping worried I’m just gonna drop dead in my sleep because no one will even give me the time of day to try and help figure it out, I’ve seen multiple doctors and can’t even get them to do a holter monitor so they can see what I’m talking about as it can be so random, the US healthcare system is terrible at least with what I’ve experienced and I myself have been in the medical field for over a decade

I was diagnosed with a fib and a flutter last May. In November I was also diagnosed with SVT and PVC. The medications they had me on didn’t work and I actually went into acute heart failure back in January. Luckily I have almost completely recovered from that, and I am scheduled to have an ablation done in June to hopefully control everything and allow me to get off some of the meds I’m taking. Thanks for sharing your story!

You’re experiencing medical gaslighting.

Did you change your diet? I went clean vegan (meaning no junk food) and dropped caffeine and I haven’t experienced any palpitations after the first couple of weeks of the new diet. It’s been 2+ years.

They seem to be identifying all irregular heartbeats as A-Fib. My rate jumps from 60`s to 94 and sometimes 100. But relaxing it stays around 70`s.The instructions that came with my heart finger monitor says that anything between 60 and 100 is normal. So who do you believe? My brother had the ablation and STILL has irregular beats.I won`t take thinners. I take natokinase Metropolol and baby aspirin , stay active and watch my diet.

For me “too much” is more than one cup of coffee. I seem to get alright with decaf which contains trace amounts of caffeine. I’m impressed that someone as young as you appear to be was able to get anyone to believe that you had a heart condition.

I've recently been diagnosed with SVT and it's been the hardest month of my life

I had my SVT ablation a couple years ago. Through recovery I had a couple rough patches where I felt I didn't work but I guess it could take close to a year to fully heal, which seemed to be true. Around month 8 I felt far less episodes until they've finally disappeared around month 10 - 12. I still get ectopics like crazy though!! The SVT ablation seemed to also fix my a-fib episodes as well. Keep up the good fight, brotha!

I wish I could get the courage to run. My heart anxiety's kept me away from training for almost 10 years... (SVT, Ectopic and a-fib sufferer here). The SVT seems to be undercontrol after my ablation. That also seemed to have fixed my a-fib (we think the svt triggered a-fib). Now I'm just dealing with the ectopics and I just hate them!

Ive been monitoring mine and believe it or not its caffine that triggers mine. An occassional one I am fine with but I am trying to avoid caffine at all cost now. It can effect it your right. I am the same, occassion is ok but now I know the trigger, I am going to try and avoid it.

Thanks for sharing your experience. I have AFib and have also tried to determine what triggers the palpitations (e.g. caffeine, alcohol).

i've also been going through this since i was 9 or 10. 64 yrs old now. been through several meds, which none really work anymore as i've been taking them so long. still tacking out every day. going to see about ablation in a couple weeks

Caffeine CAN, does not mean that it WILL, effect heart palpitations, every person's body chemistry is different based on their genes, not based on what their Dr's tell them.

I have svt and now I go into Afib. I had an ablation and it still happens once a month. Getting a loop record inserted next week. Everything you said is me and I’m suffering. It’s hard because I look fine on the outside side but feel awful so it’s hard while at work. It’s ROUGH and we’re young ! What gives lol

Good to hear your positivity - nothing like a run to raise the spirits. Hope your recovery is going well. I'm 68 and had a cryo-balloon ablation for my afib about 6 weeks ago here in England. I'm still feeling lots of ectopic beats but no actual afib since the ablation so far, though I do wish the ectopics would settle down. I'm running at the gym but slowed down by the sotolol (anti-arhythmic/beta blocker) I'm taking - can't get the ticker to go faster than about 110bpm. Also taking an anticoagulant (apixabin) of course which makes me wary of running outside for fear of a fall and causing a bleed. I'll go for a second ablation if the afib's not cured - 2nd time would be with rf catheter to plug any gaps around the pulmonary veins which the balloon might have missed. My ChadsVasc is only 1 (age) but that means I should stay on thinners though I'm thinking of risking a "pill in pocket" approach (see Ron Passman's brilliant lecture on this on UA-cam). I'd love to be off the sotolol and thinners! Wishing you the best for your recovery.

Been drinking coffee for 50 years. 8 years ago I developed atrial fibrillation(AFIB) after heart surgery to repair a valve. Controlled the AFIB with metropolol, worked great. But 4 months ago I developed atrial FLUTTER. Flutter is a scary condition. I had ablation done 1 month ago and it worked splendidly. The procedure was very easy (for me). It was then that I decided to also quit all caffeine cold turkey. Caffeine is not worth it. I actually do not miss it and believe I think more clearly and calmly without the jolt. YMMV. Weight control and moderate exercise are also important, or so the doctors tell me. Good luck to you.

Should have asked for a loop recorder. I wore a 24 hour, 2 week and 4 week monitor. Non of them caught much of anything. Then I got a loop recorder which caught 19 episodes of SVT over 170. The 2nd month caught 22 episodes and atrial tachycardia lasting over 4 hours. I’m pretty sure I was having all these episodes before the implant. I think the other ones aren’t that good. Hope you are able to get a successful ablation done. I hate this!

Do you drink beer. I have afib and can have 5 beers anything after that I go into afib

after years of SVT issues..I finally conceeded to have it done in 2012 in northern NJ. Never had an issue since. I see that group twice a year still.

I hate those kind of doctors. Hope you get a better doctor.

I am much older than you, but I have faced some of the same situations and conditions. Have had SVT, afib, PVCs, and aflutter for over 25 years. My first electrophysiology was terrible. He kept cussing out his nurses. Changed electrophysiologists, new one really good…really good. Had an ablation which was successful except they poked a hole in my heart. I had emergency heart surgery, after I coded three times, to remove a large clot in my pericardium. Had super good doctors and surgeons. Have an implanted loop recorder now. Just had a wireless pacemaker and AV node ablation. Feel better than I have in years. Good doctors make all the difference. You are in my prayers.

I feel extra beats but my ekg showed sinus arryhthmia no abnormalities

Wishing you much success on your second go around I just finished up my second ablation end of October and it is such a relief its not 100% but it's definitely a much better quality of life Id givevit 85 to 90% siccess rate. Ablation are not always cures it depends whats going in with your heart but it's definitely a better alternative then simply taking drugs that eventually usally stop working as time goes on.

My cardiologist diagnosed me with SVT about a week ago and gave me the option to have an ablation or take meds. I decided the meds route and he gave me deltiazem, a calcium channel blocker. I felt better for about a week and then had an SVT episode, so now I’m considering the ablation. I’ve had one SVT episode in a week but my heart does seem to be in better rhythm. Before the meds, I would get palpitations, shortness of breath, dizzy by just laying down in bed, idk if you ever experienced that but thought that was odd. Even something as simple as bending over to pick something up or walking up stairs would make me feel that way but the meds seem to have fixed that for the most part. I would love to hear an update of how you’re doing after the ablation and if you recommend it. Having SVT episodes at work is really starting to affect my job so I want to get rid of them for good! Hope you’re doing well and hope to hear from you! Thanks! 🙏🏼

Glad you doing ok
