      Completely understand you feeling afraid to do anything and laying in bed exactly how I've been 5/6 weeks have passed since my last svt and only been out for a meal with a friend and very little else before my holiday I had a svt and when I asked the doctor st the time in hospital weather I could fly he said yes as he couldn't gate tee when another svt would happen however I did have a bad attack in the USA a week later and was very ill o. Flight home I wonder if it's because I had 2 in a week that made me so bad I guess it's so hard to advise you about your flight as I was in hospital on my holiday
