Ablation for VT?

Just had a very successful ablation for exercise induced VT last Tuesday. Doc was able to induce the VT on the table and than ablate. I have an ICD and prior to the ablation was on 80 mg of Sotalol which made me feel terrible and made exercise difficult. I am 40 and felt like I was 80! So I found a specialist who was able to help me. I am on a very low dose of Nadalol (20mg) for the next 5 weeks while my heart heals. Then I will have a stress test without the Nadalol and hopefully come off all meds together.

Anyone else have a successful ablation for VT? Are you able return to activity?

Hope to hear from you!

I had my nerve center done four years ago and I still have VT and Atrial fibrillation. The down side is now my heart wont beat without a pacemaker. So next monday they are going to try and laser some other spots and see if that will stop the VT and Atrial fibrillation
