I haven't yet fainted, blacked out, had a seizure or had a cardiac arrest yet but after sinus tachycardia episodes on and off since 2021 as well as getting ectopic heartbeats (mostly PACs, some PVCs) and sometimes short sharp chest pains, doctors now think I have brugada syndrome. As far as I know, I haven't yet experienced VTach (closest I've got to VTach was back in October when recovering from COVID, experiencing short runs of Ventricular Bigeminy). Currently got a loop recorder implanted to help diagnosis. Hopefully it's not brugada. 🤞

Is this a person having a pacemaker?

ICD= under skin defibrillator

You have messed up really bad in the medical field what really is Brugada syndrome and what is not possibly labelled thousands of people globally with this issue dispite having a perfectly normal heart yet you went to blindly with this syndrome.Finally other expert's in the feild of electrophysiologist like Sam Viskin suggest to avoid the process due to the potential danger and false positive results but again noone really knows who is a true carrier and who isn't but sure the true carries are very few.

Are u saying people get falsely diagnosed with the syndrome?
My son has an SCN5A gene mutation in the heart, he experienced a cardiac arrest and survived with god's help. Should I be worried he doesn't have Brugadas?
