6 months post svt ablation

[Catlady273]

Has anyone had any right side weakness or enlarged veins in hand after an episode of svt . I am still getting svt episodes and it looks like the ablation failed. Any info more than welcome

I had ablation for svt in 2016. Chapters tuned to have episodes but heart rate didn’t get as high as pre surgery. Naturopathic doctor told me to go gluten free to see if that helped. Did what she suggested and no longer have svt unless I eat something with wheat. Also aspartame and sucralose brings it back. My hand veins do get bulged sometimes and feel funny but no heart issues that I’m aware of when that happens. I drink more water as I believe that may be caused by dehydration. Just a guess on my part. Hope this helps.

So you got bulged veins in hand with svt as every cardiologist I have spoken to has never heard of it

Not with svt but more recent without svt. Not sure what causes it but someone said make sure I’m hydrated to try to mitigate.
