What Causes Squeezing Sensation And Pain In Chest?
My daughter has WPW and had an ablation on the node that was causing SVT. But recently she has been having small episodes of SVT s. Today she called me and told me that her heart got out of rhythm and was beating hard, (not in SVT) she said it felt like her heart was squeezing in her chest and was painful. She gave it a 3 on a pain scale. Should I be concerned?

Hi,
Wolff Parkinson white syndrome is an abnormality in electric conductivity of heart and it needs regular medical advise and periodically check up by expert cardiologist. It seems she was a bit neglected for past few weeks for repeated and small episodes of SVTs leading to present Prolonged spasmodic contractions if heart. Please take it as an emergency. Take het to ER and seek expert care earliest.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
