Do I still need an implantable defibrillator (ICD) if my heart rate has stabilized to 58?72 beats per minute after undergoing a heart rhythm correction procedure (EPS-RFA), especially since my heart ultrasound and MRI are normal, and I am currently taking Inderal, amiodarone, and Prednisolone?

While your ablation (EPS-RFA) and medications like amiodarone and Inderal (propranolol) are working beautifully to manage your rhythm, the decision regarding an implantable defibrillator (ICD) depends on the original reason it was proposed. Even with normal heart structure, an ICD is sometimes still needed as a vital safety net. I gently encourage you to discuss this with your cardiologist to see if your risk has decreased enough to safely avoid the device.
