Double ablation

Posted by jimadman55 @jimadman55, 4 days ago

Cardiologist PE wants to refer me to Emory Cardiologist PE for an Ablation that would be for PVCs both inside the heart and those outside the heart. The procedure would be done at same time. Has anyone else had this done and what are your thoughts about this.

I had a single ablation done 19 mos. ago. So far it's holding. Never heard of a double ablation, but I' m not a doctor. Had two cardiac catheterizations which didn't hold. Anyway, good luck!

My brother had the, I think "hybrid" ablation after two failed single ablations and it worked great for him. They didn't do both at the same time, but I'm not up on the latest science on this so I would trust your cardiologist.
All the best!
