| Personal comments | Had catheter ablation Sept 08 but consultant discovered a posteroseptal concealed accessory pathway (a pathway coming in from outside the heart). He ablated the entry point but isn't hopeful of success. However - no episodes since the operation, continuing with Flecainide liquid. |
