Just resurrecting this thread.
My background is that I used to get the odd tachycardia attack in my early 20s Always put it down to drinking, smoking and party drugs. In my thirties it was terrible at times and I put it down to the drink and smoking. I finally quit the drink 5 years ago and took up running. Within a year I was getting them when running and occasionally at night
Then three years ago I was getting them regularly, Fast and hard for days on end. In hindsight I should of gone to the doctors then but I put it down to caffiene and sugar. I finally went to the doctors and took a heart rate trace off my ambit. He referred me to the cardio
I had one attempt at the ablation and this was unsuccessful as he could not track the reentry (I think that is what he said). I was then put under another cardiologist and he promised to get this sorted. So August 2015 I went back and spent nearly 5 hours in the Cath lab. He managed to chase down the cause on the left side but the right side was a problem and he was not sure about the right side
Fast forward to now and I get a couple of "attacks" when I run. I stop straight away and get the heart rate down. I can then carry on running. It is annoying as it really limits my fitness as I think it affects the stroke volume. Come to the conclusion that I will never be as fast as I can be and will have to stick to the long steady stuff.
I go back to the cardio this weds to have another holter monitor out on. Will push for the albation again
