2nd SVT Ablation

I had my first SVT ablation about six months ago the procedure went very smooth I went back to work the next day and had no issues.

Unfortunately the SVT arrhythmia came back and we had to do a second procedure which was done two days ago.

This procedure was completely different, I had a very difficult time after the procedure with my blood pressure being very low 70/55 and my heart rate very high. I was finally sent home late the night of the procedure when I stabilized a bit however the next morning my heart rate is now very slow and irregular. My blood pressure has improved it is typically now in the 100/70 range and my O2 level is about 97.

My heart rate has been in the range of 42 to 55 I cannot get it any higher even with walking around. Overall I feel pretty bad with a bit of nauseous. With my Kardia EKG finger scan it shows a lot of skipped beats and possible afib.

I have several calls and emails in to the doctor waiting on a callback how concerned should I be?

Thanks

I would be very worried . If all fine then you need to be fully reassured

A/e for me I would not put up with that - unless of course they have informed you that the feelings you have are normal . Plus unless you have been taught how to interpret a rhymn strip I wouldn’t frighten yourself xxx

Thanks for the reply. I ended up back in the hospital with level 2 heart block, they want to wait two weeks to see if it improves before doing a pacemaker. Back home now again , heat rate stays in the low to mid 40s so taking it easy and praying this resolves on its own
