Im going on 7 years of an official diagnosis of SVT (possible WPW but never seen on ekg). I take metoprolol daily. For the first 5 years I was only having episodes 2-3 times a year and now it seems to be once a month/every other month. My HR gets up to 250+ but I am able to covert to normal rhythm within a minute or two using Valsalva maneuver. My EKG/ECGs are always normal outside of the one below during an episode. No Delta wave present. Two seperate 72 hour Holter monitors were normal. My echo was normal.
So I have decided to not go the ablation route and my cardiologist agreed that it’s not necessary and it’s really just about quality of life not if it’s life or death.
I’ve attached a photo of the only recorded SVT on ekg (happened to be my first sustained episode).

If you were in my situation would you keep going without an ablation? It seems like majority of the people in this group get an ablation and I feel like I’m making a wrong choice 🥴
