Constant ectopics after ablation for atrial tachycardia

Posted , 3 users are following.

hi everyone

i had an ablation on 3/06/21 today is 9/03/21 since around 48 hours after the procedure ive been experience a very frequent amount of ectopics (30 plus an hour) and there is no longer an hour i go without at least a few im really struggling with it im crying every day constantly anxious not sleeping i have spoken to the arrythmia nurses who are going to get me a 24 hour holter monitor but tried to reassure me if its a burden below 10% its benign . however i have tachycardia induced cardioymyopthy (hence the ablation ) and severe heart failure im terrified this will affect my recovery if these beats dont subside or cause more damage. ive searched so many forums and nobody has a similar situation to me so i would love to know if theres anyone out there to talk to

    Hi Shannon,

    I am sorry there has not been any relies to you. Hopefully someone will chime in and be able to help

    I too have AT. Any type of SVT is awful. People that never have experienced this have no idea.

    Hope some one will be able to help you.
