I discussed with my doctor cryoablation as a second trial to treat SVT
As I understood from him it is not per enact and I should carry out radio frequency ablation as a final treatment He agreed to write for me a report recommending my case for cryoablation which is not available here in my country Appreciate any feedback about it , and which centers may carry out such

Taking meds - purely a reflective piece.
I am one of those who believe that you don't take meds, unless it is life threatening. So my question to myself is at what point does it become life threatening? I take Flecainide as a pill in the pocket to stop an attack, rather than daily to prevent one and up until now that has worked for 5 years

Is there anyone else in Sydney having problems with medical funds over an ablation?
This is my problem. I have a history of heart problems. It started with an aortic valve replacement and then AF attacks , clots and now PAF which is now controlled by drugs. Daily 125mg digoxin 80 mg Sotalol 10 mg bisoprolol This all causes other problems - now I have an enlarged aorta - left bundle

50 days after ablation
Good thing no atrial flutter recorded , but unpredictable junction Tachycardia, recently at night for 3 times I went to ER last night and I'm disappointed , they said nothing to be done there for me , they got EKG and send me back , told me it is not dangerous and they can't do anything to stop it just

Are ectopic beats in this case dangerous ?
My doctor explained to me today that I'm having different types of irrythemias and he is not sure which is causing me these complains , but his major concern was about a recorded group of 5 & 8 ectopic beats in my holter monitor 10 months ago , and he called that VT if I got it right I used to have

I'm in a cycle , all are under discussion , atrial flutter , atrial tachycardia , VT , don't know the difference
For me all are similar as I'm feeling same ugly symptoms , few were very sever attacks , but the treatment offered warfarin ablation , beta blocker , recently one of the doctors advised me a pacemaker Conclusion still not stable after ablation on sotalol 80 mg twice a day which is controlling the symptoms

Four weeks after my ablation and not sure if its gone to plan, or am I being an inpatient patient!
The Ablation went well and I was home the next day, the first night at home was awful and I seriously didn't think I was going to make it through the night! As the night drew in my discomfort in my chest became unbearable, the only position I was anywhere near comfortable was sitting up, If I moved my
