Anyone here actually have a defibrillator implanted? And if so, did you experience any episodes after getting it put in?
Thanks in advance for the help!

Hi everyone,
Here’s my situation. I’m 54...
Ten years ago, I survived a myocardial infarction. They put in two stents, and about a year later, I had a defibrillator implanted because they diagnosed me with VT (ventricular tachycardia).
The episodes are pretty frequent, and the device has had to kick in several times to stop them.
Now, my doctors are suggesting ablation as an option.
Has anyone here gone through an ablation? I'd love to hear what your experience was like during recovery.
Thanks so much for any insight or help you can offer.
Best, Milena
