So im new here, i was finally diagnosed as having atrial tachycardia, im trying to understand it better, not much info out there on it. My doctor said its SVT and its the more rare and unfortunately harder SVTs to treat. I was wondering what exactly is atrial tachycardia, is it the same as AFIB? I was told it wasn't, is it life threatening, has anyone on here had it before? Worried also about ablation, my ablation is in 4 days.
