I have been told I have Paroximal Etopic Atrial Tachycardia. The way my Cardiologist described it is that a few cells from my sinus node migrated over to a different part of my atium when I was developing (fetus I suppose), and this little patch sometimes sttarts it's own beat. For me it only happens for a few beats (3-6), though lately this has increased. I have been told by some that ablation is an option, but my Cardiologist says that it is hard for and EP to find a ablate that responsible area.
What I am wondering is will this condition slowly get worse (happen more frequently). If so, at what point is ablation a good coice for this type of SVT.
Also, is this the same thing as focally-driven tachycardia?
Thanks in advance
