Hello Len,

I just had an RF ablation procedure last Monday. It was to eliminate SVT
that had occured about two monthes ago. It was a relatively painless
procedure. I was in and out of the hospital after one overnight stay.
However painless, I still don't know if has worked. I'm still taking a beta
blocker and have a different feeling in my chest (Not a tachycardia). I'm
told that this is a trigger beat and could last for several months before
disappearing.

I was told that an ablation for A-fib was too risky. My EP did an
ablation in '97 to correct an SVT/Paroxsysmal Atrial Tachycardia which
gave me problems for years. The reentry pathway was so close to the AV
node that, after the ablation, I ended up with progressive AV block.
After three months I had 3rd degree, almost complete, AV block. Of course
a dual chamber pacer was inserted. After recieving my second pacemaker I
noticed something different and thought the settings just needed
tweaking. It ended up being diagnosed as just Afib at first but turned
out to be true Atrial Tachycardia, with 300bpm in the top to 150bpm in
the bottom. This was when I was told by one EP that only a full AV
ablation would do. I opted to take a beta-blocker and a potassiom channel
blocker instead.

All....I've had AF since about '95 and over the years its gotten
progressively worse to the point where I needed cardioversion and then
amiodarone and Toporol to keep me in rythem. With the toxic side effects
of Amiodarone (sp) my cardiologist thought it would be best getting an
ablation. I've scheduled this procedure at St. Francis hospital on long
Island with a Dr. Levine who supposedly is one of the top guys in this
field.

I would love to get more details from anyone who has had this procedure
recently as to where they had it done and by what doctor.

Thanks much,
Fred
