Cardiac & Syncope

All About my Physical Health
What is Wrong with my Heart & What is Syncope?

My Diagnosis: Unifocal Ventricular Etopics, Bigeminy and Trigeminy Episodes, Syncope
My Consultants: Paediatric Cardiologist, Specialist Children's Hospital
My Treatments: N/A
My Past Investigations: Multiple EGCs, Echo-Cardiogram, Five Day ECG Event Recorder
Things Happening in the Future: Implanted ECG Loop Recorder

Since September 2015 I have also experienced regular Syncope episodes which are thought to be caused by Bigeminy and Trigeminy episode, which are times where you can have two or three heart beats in a row. At the moment, I see a Cardiologist at a Specialist Children's Hospital as well as being regularly monitored by my own GP. I have had many investigations such as multiple ECG's, an Echo-Cardiogram and a five day ECG event recorder fitted. Following this I am being referred to a more specialist Cardiologist at my hospital and I'm waiting for a loop recorder to be implanted for a more thourough investigation of my heart and it's rhythms.
