Hello,

does anyone know is side effects from an SVT ablation can include bradycardia? i had my ablation for SVT around a year ago and whilst i still get the odd funny rhythm everything has been fine until recently.

I've noticed that my heart rate is dropping very low (34-37 BPM) on a regular basis. I'm not getting any symptoms such a dizziness with this so haven't worried to much but friends and family seem to be very concerned.

I cant find anywhere that the ablation could be the cause but having one from extremely high rate arrhythmia to less than 40 BPM is concerning me slightly.

I'm 31 and in good heath generally, whilst i do work out its nothing that would cause athlete level HR.
