Fox,
I should have realized the ablation was for electrical...my cousin had that done a few years back. I thought they did those more for atrial fibs, though, than for SVT. I've had a couple of episodes of SVT myself, but IV cardizem stopped them, and since they were years apart, nothing to worry about, I guess.

As for the drinking, though...regardless of what you drink, "a lot and often" isn't good for a diabetic. An occasional glass of white zin is fine, but "occasional" is the operative word here.

Also, do see a dietician...I think you'll find it very helpful.
