Too many PVCs + need Plains States EP
by WadeP, Aug 11, 2007 10:20AM
I read posts on this site daily but, for the most part have not posted. However, once again I'm fishing for a little info...does anyone know of a good (great) EP in St. Louis, Kansas City, Memphis or Tulsa? Naturally, I'm looking for some of the same (or near) quality as others have found in Boston, Cleveland, NY, etc. Just curious.
Also, no AFIB since my 2002 ablation but continue to be plagued by large # of ectopics (5-8,000/day) - benign (according to holter) and everything else with my heart remains normal. Am visiting Dr. Kay at UAB on Monday but still want a 2nd & 3rd opinion. The ectopics are not as bad as AFIB but not far behind. I want some answers and possible solutions!! I've tried every damn supplement on the market the past few years (magnesium, potassium, etc.), changed eating habits, meditate...you name it. Am on Nadalol (beta blocker), 80mg X 2 and Flecinaide 100mg X 2 which I've been repeatedly told are the drugs of choice for this condition. Once again, just curious.
Thanks!
