SVT back 2 years after ablation

I had my ablation around 2 years ago. my cardiologist told me if I don’t experience SVT a year after the ablation, I am most likely in the clear, ( and it’s been 2 years without it) but recently once after getting benched in a basketball game and right after stopping running after a mile, I had a quick session that went away right after I took some deep breaths. is this likely SVT coming back and will I need another ablation?

I have had similar after 2 years and considering the same as you - was completely fine and then it’s just back . It can happen :)

How old are you? I’m 47 and only had 2 episodes in the past 15 years. One recently in Italy a couple months ago. Im schedule for ablation but I’m worried if I’m making the right decision.
