sports after ablation surgery ? Posted: 06-02-08 18:01pm
Hi,
I'm 16 years old and have enjoyed a so far
decent sporting career. An impressive
rugby talent at my age means I was
selected to represent my county.
However, after roughly two years of
occassional attacks of SVT I was told I
could no longer do strenuosus sport till I
have had the ablation surgery.
My cardiologist has not been specific and
I am desperate to know if I can continue
my sport if the surgery is successful??
I have been at the gym 3-4 times a week
doing 20 mins running and 1.30hrs weights
and have had no attacks what so ever. Only
on 12.5 mg atenolol and apparently just
mild SVT.
Any ideas??Details on the surgery will
also help as I am extremely nervous.
Can you tell me what was the exactly
caused those attacks of supra-ventricular
tachycardia (SVT)? What was the precise
diagnosis of your heart rhytam disorder?
You can probably continue with the sport
activities after the successful surgery.
