I had ablation for svt around 7 years ago and then cryoablation for afib 6 years ago. I am taking both a blood thinner and a small dose of beta blocker

While I have felt an occasional off beat it wasn’t until Friday that I entered tachycardia of around 109. I had not taken the beta blocker the night before (fell asleep early and couldn’t remember) and wonder if that is the cause

Scheduled for a checkup tomorrow but really feel sick that perhaps I am en route to another ablation

I really wouldn't not worry too much about a rate of 109 as it is only just above the normal rate of 60 to 100.

Seems like it might have just been the missing of the meds. Hope so! Good luck with the appointment tomorrow. And good to hear that your SVT ablation has lasted so long. I’m schedule for one in a few weeks. 3 ablations finally zapped the afib, but they couldn’t trigger the atrial tachycardia. Trying again.
