Hi,
I am 32 M Indian and had right side WPW diagnosed when I was 10. I had occasional palpitations until I was 24-25 when I started working out, running, hiking. For next 6-7 years I had NO episodes even with rigorous exercise.
This year in September 2013 I felt all kinds of heart arrythmia once every week - slow beats, flutters, PVCs, Nausea!!, pounding heart and went to ER 3 times. I went through holter, event monitor, echo, etc..
My heart would start pounding or fluttering all of a SUDDEN while I am sitting or resting!
I got ablation on Oct 23rd for WPW. No medications other than aspirin for 2 wks. My follow up checkup on Dec 12th showed no more DELTA, so WPW is gone. EP says my heart looks great and beats like a rolex.
After my ablation, between Oct 23rd and Dec 15th, I have felt a couple episodes where for 5-10 seconds, all of a sudden while sitting and watching TV or working on my computer, my heart rate rises up and slows down back to normal. I feel as if its another WPW attack although the WPW is gone as per EKG.
No dizziness, no fainting, no pain.
I am wondering what could be causing while simply resting and relaxing!
I have good diet and not salt deficient, thryoid checked out fine.
Should I see another EP and get an EP study done? Or wait another month?
I am worried because I live alone, just having moved to a new city - so no friends or family nearby.
Any help appreciated?
