Well, I am having my ablation for SVT on May 31/16. Any words of wisdom for me? I stopped the Bisoprolol today for the procedure. I am very anxious
about this procedure.
Good luck! I've never had an ablation..let us know how you make out.
Thank you Paullie, I will
Hi, they will give you stuff to chill you out so the procedure will be less stressful than you think now. I hope it will be as positive for you as it was for me!
Thank you. I have not had this for long. Actually Feb. But just hate the side affects from bisoprolol.vso that is why I am having the ablation..i guess my anxiety is through the roof since Feb. Tuesday will be very interesting. Thanks for your kind words
You can confidently expect to do very well and to be SVT free after your ablation. Your anxiety is normal and understandable. Most folks feel much as youy do as their procedure approaches. We all wish you very well and hope to hear a positive report from you after your ablation.
I think to take comfort from all the feedback available on this site and other internet forums which is by and large positive. My wife is due to have her ablation for SVT on 1st June 16 and we were/are also nervous. We asked to see the consultant managing my wife's case (not carrying out the proceedure) and he was very reassuring. Good luck and I'm sure you will be fine.
Thank you Gene, I am sure all will be well. It's just the anxiety that actually is the worst.
Thank you Planner1. Please let us know what your wife makes out.
And your wife and, therefore, you will be fine, too. Comforting thoughts, I hope.
Good luck, please update on how everything goes. I'm on the waiting list for my ablation which should be sometime in the next 3 months so I can understand ur nerves but im sure it will be great! I've heard a lot of ppl say the waiting is the absolute worst part of the whole experience - let's hope that's true! Good luck and I hope ur SVT free very soon!
Thank you Sarah. I will certainly post once it is done. Just trying to work through the anxiety.
Hi, I would just think about the benefits of the procedure. You will be fine, put your trust in the amazing people in the team working on you. You will feel absolutely nothing in your chest/heart, so it's all good. Just take it really easy for a couple of days after the procedure and let your family spoil you, haha....
Hi Graham,
Thank you for your kind words. I am just so anxious about this whole thing. I had to stop the Bisoprolol 5 days prior to this procedure so I think that is playing on me too. My heart rate has increased quite a bit, so along with the sweats and jittery legs, I am quite a mess. Hope this will be all worth it...........I am such a weiner
Well I went for my ablation today....and it got cancelled until June 22/16. I was so dissappointed. I was so anxious there. My legs were like jelly and I could not get them to stop shaking and jerking. They took me for a tour to the cath lab thinking that might help me next time. Now another 3 weeks to think about it.
That you didn't need, Lola. What if each time you begin thinking about your coming ablation, you try telling yourself to stop doing so, and then think about something you enjoy. You could carry a card with something like "STOP!" on it.
Regardless, your ablation will arrive sooner than you can now imagine, and I remain very optimistic for you. Take good care of yourself.
Thank you Gene for your kind words. Yes maybe I should do what you suggested. I would probably have to tape it on my face though and stare at it constantly...........Thank for caring
Aw what a pity. Do your best to chill out about it and not dread the delay but look forward to getting rid of SVT for good! 
Thank you ciaran for your kind words
Well Graham, went yesterday for the ablation and got cancelled until June 22/16. I was an anxiety wreck. Legs were rubbery,shaking and jerking. I just wanted to get done with it. This i suspect is anxiety as I have many other symptoms. Just wanted to be done with this
