Yes it is. It's a horrible way to live your life, and that's exactly how I lived mine for 54 years; 6 to 60. I dealt with it. It was intertwined in my daily life. There were thing I wouldn't hesitate to do, and others in which I would access the "risk, and decide if it was in my mind, safe or not. Sports: I was involved in sprint cycling, and speed skating. Both were on an oval track, so Ibwas never far from where I started. But road cycling I'd avoid. I could be anywhere if it fired up. I never went on a cruise; too far from a hospital. My family did a lot of ocean sailing. They sailed to Bermuda, I stayed home. That was something I'd never dream of doing despite my love of open water sailing. I just wouldn't do it. So I got use to this relationship I had with my SVT. It was part of my lifestyle. While I challanged it, I didnt think I let it control me. But of course it did. I just gave you some examples of how it controlled me. The point of all this is to tell you that ypou aren't alone. In my 7 years here on the forum, I've lots and lots of people like you and I. Until 2010, I didnt even know there was a possible solution because I didn't know of anyone else who had what we had. In fact, in the 54 years I dealt with, there was only 2 recordings of it. The first was in 1957 when at 6 years old, I was rushed to the hospital with a heart rate of 312bpm. It was converted with digitalis. Then fast forward 15 years later to 1972 while I was in Deborah Heart hospital trying to get a handle of it, they gave me an early heart catheterization. The catheter, fished from my right arm, entered the right atria, touched the heart wall, and it was off to the races. With blood gushing from my arm, I was able to Valsalva out of it. The diagnosis: SVT of unknown origin. The prescribed treatment was, and I quote, "Learn to take life easy." Now I was and still am, a balls to the wall, full smoke kind of guy. Taking easy wasn't my lifestyle. And so I coexisted with SVT until 2010 when I got a 30 day loop recorder, and my cardiologist was alarmed when he saw a 60 year old guy with an episode heart rate of 240 bpm. So after seeing a couple of electrophysiologists, I selected one, he went in and apparently it was very easy to find and ablate. 54 years of AVRT gone in 5 hours. So yeah, I know how you feel. I wouldn't give up on getting it fired. I might give up on the current team taking care of you. I'd try somebody and someplace new. Maybe look outside your area at elecrrophysiology hot spots, University of Penn, The Cleveland Clinic, places like that. Give them a shot and see what they can do for you. On the meantime, it may eventually settle down. I had about a year of short runs of SVT, a dozen beats or so before it disappeared. Don't give up yet, but plan ahead for your next plan of action. (I'm going to apologize now if you see any typos. I'm writing on a tiny keyboard on my phone, and this is a lot of text!)
