Hi,welcome to HCM.
Brugada syndrome is associated with rhythm disturbances of your heart.An implantable cardiac defibrillator is very essential for preventing the fatal cardiac arrhthmias like torsa de pointes.I advice you to have an electrophysiological studies of your heart to locate any abnormal/accessory pathway of conduction.Radiofrequency ablation can offer permanent cure if any.Consult your cardiologist for further queries.
Thank you
