Hello @regeanna, I have had bouts of Tachycardia which are now controlled with Beta blockers. Ablation was a consideration for me only if the Ventricular Tachycardia could not be controlled with the beta blocker. Beta blockers are not the answer for everyone.

My Tachycardia was associated with Mitral Valve Prolapse. I have been taking beta blockers for around 32 years and have only an occasional runs that I can feel. I have PVC's continually and have for the most part learned to ignore them.
Good luck, I wish you the best. Heart rhythm issues are not fun at all.

Hello V.Douglas,                              Thanks for telling me your story, it really helped. I have been wondering if this NSVT is a sign of worsening CHF guess I will find out when I go back to the cardiologist. Your right it's no fun, but I'm  still hopeful  things will get better, I hope the same for you. Thanks again and take care!
