HI, I'M 43 YEARS OLD FEMALE, HAVING ABNORMAL HEART PALPIATIONSFOR THE PAST 5 YEARS INCLUDING :ARRYTHMIA , BIGEMINY& TRIGEMINY HEART BEATS, IN ADDITION TO THE RBBB. & SOMETIMES I GET TACHYCARDIA.
I'M CURRENTLY ON TENORMIN 25 MG , BUT IT DOESN'T WORK. PREVIOUSLY USED CONCOR PLUS & CONCOR 2.5 AND BUT THOSE ALSO DIDN'T WORK. IS THAT A SERIOUS HEART ISSUE? AM I AT RISK OF SUDDEN DEATH? IS THERE ANY FINAL TREATMENT FOR THIS CONDITION?

Dear friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic
You have used different drugs from the same class…
There are other classes and several drugs in each class
The effects depend on the cause and associated morbidity
Generally benign, if ECHO and examination are normal
Consult an Electro physiologist (a subspecialty of Cardiology) – there are advanced techniques of investigation & treatment
Take care
Good luck
