WPW and short of breath

I have WPW or Wolf Parkinsons White Syndrome, lately I have been having an irregular heart beat it will beat 3 or 4 times and then skip a beat, normally I wouldent let this bother me but I have started having shortness of breath and some pain I am tired all the time. Any opinions?

Normally my pvc, pac or skip beat will immediately turns into svt.  That's why my cardio told me I didn't have pvc nor pac.  In 2005, I experienced in SOB, irregular heart beat and chest vibration.  My cardio told me that I got A-Fib.  Have you had the ablation yet?  How often do you get palpitations?

Sorry to hear it. I had WPW until I was 44, and can recall experiencing various symptoms from it off and on for at least 26 of those years. How soon are you going to see an EP at the Cleveland clinic?
