SVT & transplants

SVT & transplants

I have had 2 SVT & 1 PSVT within the past year,. the 2 svt were treated in the e.r. the other didnt need medical intervention.

What and how will my cardiologist and my transplant team be able to do for me? there is a concern there since i have had my new kidney since 2003 and im on blood thinners due to mitral valve replacement in 2002.

I am a healthy 38 year old female who is active, eats healthy. I dont smoke or drink alcohol.

Thank you
Adriana

Do you know what sub type of SVT it was?

SVT can be caused by heart surgery.. possibly from your mitral valve replacement.
