Cardiologist 's  Response
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Your mother is having tachycardia because of abnormal impulse conduction which requires proper treatment. As per your cardiologist's advice she should go for Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) in which reentry circuits are destructed. It's recommended for you to get her fully evaluated and treatment with RFA and medications.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhanu Partap
