Thanks for keeping us posted. Because I may need a touchup ablation I had a few questions for you about your experience.

I assume you had a mapping procedure to determine that what you were experiencing was SVT and to learn the location of the secondary pathways? If so, what was the procedure like?

Seventeen months after the Maze and being in junctional ever since(never NSR), I started experiencing palpitations which have been determined to be a-fib when they occur. After increasing my Rhythmol dosage, the palpitations have lessened in frequency but still occur in momentary spurts. I seem to have a choice to continue living this way, or to have a mapping procedure to determine where the impulse is coming from followed by an ablation attempt. I'm not sure yet what to do.

Thanks, and my best to you for continued NSR success!

Roger
