I'm really concerned about my husband's heart; his heartbeat is always too fast. He says it's been like this since he was a child. Should I be worried about this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Hi, if your husband's heart rate is consistently fast, it is important to have him evaluated by a doctor to determine the underlying cause. One common condition that can cause a fast heart rate is supraventricular tachycardia (SVT). Medications like Metoprolol (25-100mg) can be prescribed to help control the heart rate. However, a proper diagnosis is necessary to determine the most appropriate treatment plan.

I'm a bit worried after my recent health check-up. It showed something about ventricular preexcitation. I'm not really sure what that means and what I should be doing next. Can you help me understand this better and advise on what steps I should take?
In your case of ventricular preexcitation, the main concern is the risk of developing fast heart rhythms. To manage this condition, you can take medications such as Flecainide or Propafenone to help regulate your heart's rhythm. The dosage will depend on your specific condition and should be determined by a healthcare professional. Additionally, you may need to undergo further testing or procedures to assess the severity of the preexcitation and determine the best course of action. Regular follow-ups with a cardiologist are essential to monitor your condition and adjust treatment as needed.
