Hi, I'm sorry to hear your ablation hasn't really helped with your problem. I am due to have an ablation for svt in a couple of months time. Sorry i have no advise for the feeling you get in your neck. I just wanted to ask do you also sufer from pvcs? If you do did they get worse or better with the ablation for svt?
I don't know if i have pvcs. what do they feel like? I hope your ablation goes great. I know it works for many. I am not sure my dr. is that great. I lost faith in him and maybe should have shopped around some more. I am so fatigued all of the time. Best of luck. The procedure itself was easy but I was a nervous wreck and they couldn't get the iv started and I had a really hard time getting to sleep with the anesthesia!
If this is an everyday occurrence then a holter monitor should be able to register these irregular beats and it can show if they are from the lower or upper chambers.
If you feel it in the carotid it could be that the ventricles pumpout more blood than the prior beat. When you have irregular beats the blood may not be pumped out evenly, so you feel a gush in the neck.
It could also mean that the carotid has some blockage, or constiction; in which case you should have it checked out.
High blood pressure could possibly be a cause also.
