This is definitely not the expected result.
Sometimes a partially successful ablation (which weakens but does not eliminate the extra pathway) can cause an almost incessant milder tachycardia. Alternatively there could be some bleeding into the space around your heart causing the pain and making the pumping less efficient - this is potentially serious.
I think you should get your family doctor to arrange an urgent visit to the hospital to have an echocardiogram and a 24 hour heart recording and review by your cardiologist.
