Hello Beebo,

I am so sorry to hear that your ablation is causing some problems. Hopefully, since you are in the blanking period right now it will go away.

I had my second heart ablation last May and the very same night I went into Tachycardia lasting about 6 hours. I saw my EP the next day and he was not concerned. He said that it was normal to have this happen and since my heart rate was about 99 to 105 and steady, he left me alone. It resolved.

Since that event, I have had many tachycardia events, all in the low range of 99 to 105. I never know when it is going to happen and it is quite unnerving. When my heart decides to slow down to my normal 60 to 65, it will pause and that is scary. It does this to reset itself. My EP wanted to wait until my blanking period was over (3 months) to change or add medicine. It continued. I had two trips by ambulance to the hospital and three hospital stays. My doctor was more concerned with the pauses than the tachycardia. During my last episode in October, I was having several pauses in a row to reset my heart. My poor heart is so confused. I was put in the hospital and loaded with Dofetilide 125, the lowest dose. I also take Propranolol ER instead of Metoporol becasue it takes away the headache that is a side effect of Dofetilide. I also take Eliquis.
