My doctor said that my AVNRT PSVT puts me at risk for a stroke. But my
cardiologist said that I'm not at risk for a stroke. Who is right?
I also heard that massaging my carotid artery while having an episode
can put me at higher risk for stroke. Not sure if that is true.
Below is a link to some print outs from when I was having an episode
at 275 bpm. The paramedic gave me 6mg, 12mg, and 12mg of Adenosine
before it converted back to normal. The last attempt was botched.. the
saline flush leaked out on my arm :-D
This link shows the worst episode I have ever had in my life, because
just 15 minutes prior to this I was doing heavy weight lifting
exercises. My blood pressure was very high. I have given up weight
lifting because I don't want that to happen again. I will stick to
walking on a treadmill.
I only have a few of these each year so I'm going to wait awhile
before I have the radio frequency ablation. I just want to know if I'm
at a risk for stroke. Thanks.

If you remember to breath during exercise, your blood pressure should
increase by at most only 50% during exercise.
May GOD bless you in HIS mighty way.
Prayerfully in Jesus' awesome love,
