Pvc ablation success storries

[Grace1999]

Hi there I had a pvc ablation 6 days ago. Was deemed a success on the table. I did have pvcs post procedure but now like one or 2 a day. Is this normal and has anyone had the same and continued with the success after.

Thanks

Hi Grace. I had an ablation 18 years ago for ventricular ectopics and have been fine for many years. I now have paroxysmal af and get atrial ectopics. I am now waiting for an ablation due to high heart rate. I hope that you are now cured and can start living again. Any info on your ablation would be appreciated as it’s so long since my last and technology has moved on a great deal. I am looking forward to getting this done so that I can get my life back and enjoy living.

Hello 👋

So I'm week 2 post ablation and to be honest I have zero improvement unfortunately. Did your pvcs settle straight away? Ablation procedure was totally fine. Lightly sedated and recovery was minimal. I'm more sad that the ectopics still continue. I was hoping they would settle but no luck. You will be fine

My ablation wasn't for my PVCs so hasn't cured them, but they were probably worse in the 2 weeks after than they are now, had to go to hospital a couple of times for checks. The first few months after were then less frequent but still noticably bad. Took around 6 months for them to calm down. Now days, 10+ years later, I get bad waves and then periods without them. So, you may find they settle down gradually. As your post is 5 months old now, I'm hoping you've noticed some improvements?
