    Hi hunnie. Not quiet sure if its normal or not. I have a nod rentry tach. But never had the ablation done. However from what i researched sometimes they have to go back and do a second ablation. Do you see a cardiologist? I would schedule an apt with one and ask for a halter monitor. That way it will pick up any skipped beats and palps. How do you feel other wise? I hope you get it all figured out also you can ask for a beta blocker and see if that helps. Good luck hun

    Hi I have been having this regular over the last few weeks. some days it doesn't do it then others like today it's doing it quite frequently. I've been told it's pretty normal by a cardio nurse and things look like stress can cause it. I'm also post menopausal so dont know whether that is a cause too

    I suffer from a-fib, I know that's not SVT, but on a holter monitor 2,920 PACs were captured and I was told that is nothing to worry about, our hearts contract 80-90,000 times in a 24 hour

    period, so maybe you should get a H monitor for 24 hours and then you'll either be told nothing to worry about or something to worry about. Mine is most likely associated with the congenital heart defect, which I've had all my life. At 65 I'm lucky to be alive since most with significant uncorrected ASDs are deceased by 60. Good luck, remember try to enjoy life, it goes by quicker than one thinks.
