Pediatrician Dr. Venkata Subrahmanaym Mukkavilli's  Response
Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
Your history suggests that your son may be suffering from Paraxysmal supraventricular tacycardia (PAT).
Better take ECG and if it is found to be abnormal consult cardiologist and get treated.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
