Hi everyone. I had an EP study in Feb 2018 but they could not induce the tachycardia at that time. After a year and a half of various drugs and frequent episodes documented, my doctor wants to repeat an EP study and try ablation again. Has this happened with anyone? Has the second EP study been successful in inducing the tachy and leading to a successful ablation? I am afraid this one may not reveal anything again and it will all be for nothing.. Thanks in advance for writing in!

They had a hard time inducing mine, they said it took a lot of adrenaline to get it going, but got it. Mine didn't happen frequently but because my heart rates would go to 300, they felt it was worth doing the ablation
