    Yeah, I had issued with sinus tachycardia and my cardiologist thinks I may now have A-fib as well.

    I had between 3-4 sinus Tachycardia events post ablation.  1st one was same night after discharge.  Day 1 Tachycardia was scary cuz I didn’t know if my heart could handle going fast right after ablation.  I called teledoc service while sitting outside of ER(I didn’t want another ER bill if I could avoid it).  Teledoc said tachy is OK And not dangerous, even post ablation.  I confirmed with my cardiologist that it was nornal after ablation.  They all happened in the first few weeks post ablation.  Did stress test two weeks ago, wore holter monitor and now 9 weeks post ablation.  Cardiologist said everything looks great and he deemed  the ablation a success.  Everything is normal other than I notice pacs/pvcs sometimes (maybe due in part to the fact that I’ve been hyper aware of my heart since svts started). I’m back at the gym 4 days a week, running 5mph 25-45min and lifting weights. Anxiety is starting to subside, life is getting back to normal 🙏🏽??
