Failed ablation

Yes, the first one worked great for 3 months, then I went into flutter, then ablation 2, then SVTs started with passing out as I went into them, then ablation 3, didn’t work to stop SVTs so one more time! My heart just kept finding new pathways to misbehave I guess. I started afib originally in my early 20’s, paroxysmal. Seldom enough then to just wait the episodes out, for usually up to 5-8 hours. Then it got more frequent as I got older, so began med, it kept me ok for 12 years. Then I broke through that one and first ablation done, so I’d be off meds and no more afib! Did not work out that way…

Thanks for the response. How very frustrating to go through all that and still have afib.
