Had a catheter ablation about a week ago and have had a few episodes where my heart races to a super high number for different periods of time. Just wondering if anyone else had experienced this after a catheter ablation.? I'm still having chest pain from the procedure and when your heart races to 170-190 w/ chest pain it is very scary.
