I had an attempted ablation for VT about 7 weeks ago as well as an ICD. All was fine for the first few weeks, then the PVCs started back up and now over the last week or so, the antitachycardia pacing on mu ICD has occurred many times a day. I currently take 120 mg of Sotalol twice a day. I know when the onset of VT takes place as I get a real quick dizziness, get a really warm feeling and a little pressure in my chest,(this even happened before the ICD & ablation) then the pacing kicks in. I have noticed as each day goes by, they become more frequent. My antiarrythmic pacing on my ICD is set at 5 attempts to pace me out, before the first shock occurs(5 jules). In the last 7 weeks, I "think" it had shocked me about 6 or more times. My question is, how much pacing is too much? This is starting to make me uncomfortable. I am not scheduled for my device check until May 2nd and the last time I called the office/EP, I was told by the nurses not to worry about the PVCs I was having. I have tried to explain that per my past history of the PVCs & VT... the more PVCs I have... the more the VT episodes will arise. Thus, I have proven my point. Is this something that I need to worry about? Or should I call my EP? I have a structurally healthy heart... MRI showe no scarring or anything abnormal. Have any idea who is considered the best of the best where VT /arrythmias are concerned?
