How did you end up getting an ablation?
Wondering if your doctor was hesitant to refer you to an EP? Did you have to advocate for your insurance to cover it?
My story- diagnosed with PVCs two and a half years ago, but could have had them for a long time. My burden was 14%, echo and stress test were normal.
Went on 25mg of attenolol, cut back on caffeine and lost about 45lbs. After a year of my first Zio patch, I did another one and it was less than 2%.
Switched to a PPO and started with a new medical team. I asked to do a holter cause I knew I was coming up on a year since my last one and now I’m back up to 15%
Symptoms- I do get light headed and headaches. I feel the thumps mostly at night and in the morning in bed. I have a very busy job and I think I’m just too distracted during the day to even notice.
I would like to see if I’m a good candidate for ablation because I really don’t want to take more meds and I would like to have coffee and alcohol again.
Why did you not do an ablation or why did you?
