Waiting for Ablation

After having "episodes" of racing heart rates for the last 15 years, I was finally diagnosed with SVT in September of 2016. I will be having my Ablation procedure hopefully in the next month or two by Dr.Sultan in Regina,Saskatchewan, Canada

Welcome to the forum. You'll find a large number of us live in the UK but there are contributors world wide and quite a few in Canada.

Like you I had SVT for many years and it didn't bother me a great deal, but eventually I was diagnosed and went on to develop AF. I hope your ablation will nip things in the bud!

All good wishes.

hope you were not driving when you took that selfie!!!!......best of luck, please let us know how you get on.......

It took 15 years for you to get diagnosed in our Canadian system (I'm Canadian)? September is 6 months ago, and now you are dangled with "hopefully" for the next month or two? That means in March, you have no date for either April or May? Talk about efficiency in our Canadian system where so much money is allotted with an inverse relationship to waiting time, let alone the unknown waiting time. The real time that seem to matter is time to change the politicians.
