Hi there
Sorry to bother you but I just wondered if you could help me put my mind at ease.
Not to bore you just tell you how I was diagnosed with wpw .
I was round about 17 years old when I first had a bad exspience .I was in my house at the time and my sister made me dinner she gave it to me and I walked up the stairs to go to the living room which was on the second floor , as I past the landing I sunddly felt dizzy and I fainted, as you could imagine all the food was all over me , that’s when my sister heard a thump and came running up the stairs only to find me on the floor blue in the face and unconscious .She rang the hospital straight away and I was taken by ambulance .To cut along story short they found nothing was wrong with me . So I carried on living a normal life until I moved away to the states by this time I was 19 years old and I was studying there. I would have frequent heart palpitation but to be honest I ignored them because I was told there was nothing wrong with me and Iby now I had gotten used to them, I thought it was norm.
Well in July 2007 I got married and on the wedding day I felt hot and dizzy and my heart rate was high but I just put it down to nerves.
Then a month later I went to register with a doctor and I didn’t feel well at all .My doctor took my blood pressure and told me I don’t look good so she felt my heart rate she told me that no wonder I am not feeling good my heart was beating at 170 bpm . They then moved me to another room and quickly put me on an ECG and they tried to settle my heart rate done but it just got worse and rose to 200 bpm. The ambulance came and drove me to the hospital that’s when they diagnosed me with wpw and said they have eject me with adenzine to bring my heart rate down which worked .I was then put on medication for 5 months, but it didn’t help it just got considerably worse now I make a lot of trips the hospital so they can eject me with the edenzine again. Which seems the only thing that’s works, I had to even give up work because it’s interfering with my work and as you can imagine I bored sitting at home I try to go out but it difficult at times.
Luckily for me I am having an operation next Monday I am so relived because I might finally have a solution .On the other hand I am absolutely terrified and I wondering if you could explain to me a bit about what happens in the operation .
Thanks for taking time to read this.
