Treatment For Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome

My boyfriend was recently diagnosed with Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome. I did some research, and discovered that he has nearly all of the symptoms of heart block and many of the symptoms of heart failure. Whenever he has an episode with his heart, he gets very dizzy, nauseous, has chest pain and cold sweats, and eventually has a blackout. Is there anything that I can do to alleviate his symptoms when they occur?

Cardiologist 's  Response
Hello, thanks for reaching out to us.
I understand your worry towards your boyfriend's health. For treatment of patients with Wolff-Parkinson-White, it depends on lots of factors like presence of other diseases that might be present, the degree of severity etc. The best advice I have for you is to encourage him to sees his cardiologist to know the best treatment possible in his case. I hope he gets better soon. Warm regards
