@BakerFX4 awe thats too bad, I really feel for you being a parent, I have kids, im worried they might get diagnosed too! but surgery might be risky at that age, I was born with wpw too but I wasnt diagnosed until I was 21, however, I remember every episode I had growing up as a kid, its not so bad, maybe becasue I was young and my heart was more newer, I would imagine it just gets worse with age, but it could also be worse at a young age, either way, I would get in touch with cardiologist

@MzzSophistocated I was 22 when I went for mine, not a single episode since!

@6LuvBug6 just get it, it will surely help, i know how scared you must feel, i was the same, but I had to try do something about it,l couldnt live on that way living in fear, not being totally free from worrying about when its going to happen again, surgeons know what they are doing, they might put you fully under or semi under, I was semi under, and I could feel when they were burning those extra bio-electrical wires, hurts but its worth it in the end!

@BakerFX4 April of 2003 i went for mine, it worked great! I went to London Ontario Canada, not sure the name of the docotrs and surgeon or even the hospital, lol, but London is the heart capital of Canada. I recommend you get it, it will change your life! I have had no episodes since, however I do every once in a blue moon get a skipped heart beat which is way more manageable than having an episode. I know how you feel living with wpw, it sucks, but there is hope!! I feel totally fine!

@BakerFX4 No problems whatsoever since the ablation - 2 years ago this May. I would highly recommend this! Wish you well!

@dawe383 Congrats on the cure man. Hope all is still going well. Have you had anymore episodes since the ablation? Where did you have it done, and who was your doctor? Thank you for any info you can offer!

@dad1717 I notice its been a year or so since your son's ablation. How has it been for him since then? Anymore episodes? I just found out my daughter has it and we are looking at options for her. Hope Adam is doing well!!! Thank you so much for any info!
