HEART DOCTOR SAID SHE MAY HAVE TO MUCH ELECTRICITY IN HER HEART AND THEY MAY HAVE TO GO IN HER HEART AND BURN SOME ENDS. AFTER FURTHER TEST OF COURSE. HAVE YOU HEARD OF THIS?
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
