Have you had it? Results? Before/After?
If you can't laugh at yourself, give me a call. I'll gladly laugh at you.

I haven't but my best friend did. His heart rate got up over 200 BPM and he had the ablation via the radio/frequency method. He was lightly sedated during the procedure. He stayed in the hospital several days due to other issues. The heart procedure required him to take it easy for a couple of weeks. I don't recall him mentioning any issues after the procedure. We talked daily and I know he would have mentioned any problems he was having. Good luck, I know this wasn't much help but it's all I got.

I had it for a hidden accessory pathway, that caused tachycardia, that was back in 2004, I haven't had any problems since. During the worst incident I was doing 210 bpm.
for every stereotype there's a prototype don't be the prototype

I had AFib, or discovered it last September. Flecainide didn't end it, so I had TEE I think it's called. Trans Esophageal E something. They cram a probe down your throat and shock the AFib out of your heart. That's not how Drs. describe it but that's what they do. Took three shocks for me.
I'm on Xarelto and flecainide now for I guess forever.

Couple episodes of afib, HB 200+ then got ablation. Still a little arrhythmia but not a problem. Had the electrode in the throat too but sedated. That was early 2000.
