18yr old son was just diagnosed with wpw syndrome

My 18yr old son was just diagnosed with wpw syndrome.  He is playing college hockey as a goaltender.  Should we have any concerns and should the coach be notified?  Also could this have anything to do with Vertigo? He has had 3 episodes within 1yr and it is not related to the innerear.

Have the doctors ever mentioned an ablation to try and treat/cure the WPW?  What does the doctor say about your son participating in hockey?  

I've not heard where vertigo is a symptom of WPW, but I'm sure it's possible since his rhythm is temporarily out of kilter....Let us know if you find out more....Interesting question!
