Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Your husband is having ecg abnormalities and symptoms (tightness of chest and shortness of breath) suggestive of Brady arrhythmias and heart block.
So better to consult cardiologist and get done Holter monitoring (24 hours continuous recording of Ecg), stress echo and electrophysiology study (EP study).
If he found to be have heart block then pacemaker insertion is the treatment.
So consult cardiologist and discuss all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your husband. Thanks.
