You need to see a cardiologist
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for using Healthcaremagic.
I read your query and understand your concerns.
I think first you need to get one fresh ECG to know his cardiac condition. In addition there is definite need to see a cardiologist for further evaluation and treatment.
This is because cardiologist are best trained in heart related matters including PSVT.
I hope this helps you.
Thanks and regards.
