Is Laser Surgery Effective In Treating Heart Palpitations?
Good afternoon, I'm 35 years old and since 2009 I start suffiring from heart palpitations I had two carkicardias so i did all the test and carry a holter monitor for eight weeks and they detect my problem and they want to do laser surgery or but me in pills for life but I start taken for one month and then i stop taken and now two years later I feel short brief and heart palpitations often.
Post cardiac ablation anti-arrythmic medication should be continued as per the advice of cardiologist. Our body has a unique tendency to rejenuvate. During cardiac ablation procedures the extra set of conduction fibres are ablated and a scar is formed, but even the scar tissue can be proarrythmogenic in nature, you need to attach a holter again to see the nature of beats. Consult you cardiologist and start antiarrythmics again.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
