Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello , I am a 24 years old guy . I was diagnosed with Wolff Parkinson White Syndrome four years ago . I have experienced few Supra-ventricular attacks after the diagnosis, And sometimes I feel premature ventricular beats PVCs . But recently I realized that my heart beats began to change in terms of intensity and smoothness . Today , for the first time in my life I have felt many strange consecutive beats lasted up to 20 seconds , Those beats were more likely PVCs . I was confused but conscious and I hastened to the clinic in my school where my heart was monitored by ECG . ..I am afraid that my heart began to develop Ventricular Tachycardia especially after taking into account the fact that my recent ECGs showed a more widened QRS complex - about 125 mm - and obvious Delta wave. Apparently I need radio-frequency ablation ,is this procedure available at your medical center ? ... How much does it cost ? Thank You
After going through your medical query I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that for recurring episodes of palpitations in WPW setting you should consult an electrophysiologist for treatment options.
To avoid any life-threatening episode RFA is the treatment of choice.
