Ablation for PVC's

6. God no with the paddles

I am used to being on the other side of the paddles. I would not wish that on anyone.

I was told that there were likely to be one of two outcomes. #1) He can reach the node and microwave it (I love that thought it makes me kinda chuckle but that is what it is) and my PVCs will be gone and my heart failure will be better as I work to make my heart stronger or #2) he cannot reach it and I will need a defibrillator. In that case I can at least stop worrying that I will drop dead, that has been the concern all along and not fun to live with. The heart failure will likely remain and that is not something I want to happen. I am not sure there is any amount of exercise that will bring it back in that case but at least I will get the kick if my heart gets wacky. I was told it feels like a cow kicking you in the chest.....but at least it is not the paddles. I hear they hurt a bit, lol.

Tomorrow I check in and should be a go for 10 AM. A bit nervous but glad to finally be at this point.
