In the spirit of follow-up and posting info that others may be wondering about or unaware of... I met with my Cardio EPS doctor this afternoon. He wants to try another ablation but this time it's one I've not heard of before: "Vein of Marshall alcohol injection". It seems to have greater success for patients like me and the vein of Marshall is external to the heart and difficult to get to. In addition to the incision in the groin, there is also an incision made in the neck to reach the Marshall vein. It's still an outpatient procedure but under general anesthesia. If this isn't successful then it's the original option for me, both of which I'm grateful for.
I plan to post on my status to help keep us all informed of options.
Thanks again everyone.
