@kai Sounds like you had a great apointment and yes i have had a sooner one when my Doctor could not get to an area he wanted too. It was an unreachable area and he wanted to try an external one. Thats where they go to the outside of the heart and in my case it was not successful. But realize that is the exception not the rule and because of that i ended up getting evaluated and receiving a new Heart. Please know this that helped me anyway, to know for sure what my course of action was so now i see that as a positive. But either way that one was actually the next day so they were only about 30 hours apart. I only mentioned the 3 months as that is the normal i was told by them.
So it sounds like your discussion with the Doctor was successful and i like hearing that he is only going to address the current issues. So i think you can rest at ease.
By the fact you both came to this agreement tells me he sound like a great Doctor. I also had my first 2 ablations with the same doctor and the second was very successful since he already knew me and he also was not what i would call an aggressive doctor in that he is only doing what's necessary . Did you decide on a date yet? I look forward to hearing how it goes.

Have an awesome Blessed Day
Dana

another question for you...if this procedure does not work again....then I for sure need to move on to a more highly experienced doc. mayo was one of the first places I looked(choose instead one of the larger hospitals in central flavor with a reasonably accomplished heart group... ...geting an appointment at mayo seems tough...and if I have to do a round three I will want the best....is there some connection via our group that can facilitate getting a appointment with a highly experienced ectrophsyiologist to deal with what by then will be a complex case....(would likely be for a round three)...have heard lead times are quite lonG...can anyone help?
