Heart Rhythm Conditions – Welcome to the group
Welcome to the Heart Rhythm Conditions group on Mayo Clinic Connect.
Did you know that the average heart beats 100,000 times a day? Millions of people live with heart rhythm problems (heart arrhythmias) which occur when the electrical impulses that coordinate heartbeats don't work properly. Let's connect with each other; we can share stories and learn about coping with the challenges, and living well with abnormal heart rhythms. I invite you to follow the group. Simply click the +FOLLOW icon on the group landing page.
I'm Kanaaz (@kanaazpereira), and I'm the moderator of this group. When you post to this group, chances are you'll also be greeted by volunteer patient Mentors and fellow members. Learn more about Moderators and Mentors on Connect.
Let's chat. Why not start by introducing yourself?

I have never heard that SVT can cause sudden death. Ventricular fibrillation, yes. @gift440 can you clarify?
Has anyone explained how meds work to slow Tachycardia? And can you pass that explanation on to me?
My cardiologist said so. Lower chamber of heart is where mine is. Says can have cardiac arrest or heart failure in literature. It’s called NSVT.
I don’t want to discuss it.
I’ve had the near faint symptoms for over 25 years. Thought bp drop. Yes but had to do with heart condition, I recently learned.
It’s in the literature. Google it. Explanation is there. Or ask your cardiologist. I read it.
Really don’t want to discuss as no meds have been RX for me as yet .
I read my type is rare and not much is known about it so it’s not a layman’s place to pass on info.
See reply under my login name.
It’s in literature.
Talk to cardiologist about. Expiation should come from heart dr not patient.
Not taking meds yet so no opinion.
