I have had a heart arrythmia since early summer of last year,it was brought on by anxiety from death of a loved one which lead to chest pains,several trips to ER,a $2000 medical bill for my dad and a appoitment with a pediatric heart specialist.They all say Im fine.I get tired real easy and I cant run from one end of house to the other without my heart going at least a pulse of 160.Its crazy,I feel that one day Im gonna be at school or at a convienence store getting a slurpie and im gonna feel my frequent chest pains and they wont go away and Im going to black out fall to the ground and die.I know its a scary thought but I feel its the truth.my arrthmia is real but I know for a fact alot of people have them,sometimes its serious medical emergency other times people have them for life.its been about 9 months since my first symptoms and nothing serious has happened.which leads to my question.
Do I have to pass out at least once to know for sure im going to die?
Thank You

How many times you pass out is not a very good indicator of how soon you are going to die. If that were so, 1/2 of us would already be dead by now. Sounds like the anxiety is playing a big role in your condition. If your pediatric cardiologist says you are fine, then you will have to believe him. If you don't....maybe go get a second opinion from one more cardiologist. At least it will put your mind at rest if he agrees with the first cardiologist, and if not, maybe the second will have a treatment that will satisfy you more.
I see that your dad has a large doctor bill, but sometimes piece of mind is worth the second opinion. Hope this helped.

If you keep dwelling on it more than likely your going to take the plunge! Stop worrying and get on with life!
The fact of the matter is, we all are born and we all die! No person on the planet gets a "guarantee" when born. Some of us live a long and healthy life while others pass on even at birth! If you sit around wasting time dwelling on the subject, life will pass you by and before you know it. it's over!
Millions have heart disease, it's a fact of life. I have it too but I don't sit around wondering if todays the day or what! Life is too short for that so get out and enjoy what the good lord had in store for you!

superb question. Leah is partly the perfect option and on the the perfect option music however the bigger subject arises whilst in basic terms one determine is a service. In that subject a container attempt will in no way paintings and the breeder has in basic terms achieved extra to break their breed by passing on a mutation 50% of the time with out hazard of detecting it. it extremely is very actual of commonplace sires who're used very many times and/ or by use of guy-made insemination the place their genes are disseminated in an particularly intense frequency between the the remainder of the inhabitants. "container" sorting out is likewise each and every so often mentioned as "attempt" matings. it extremely is an particularly undesirable and unacceptable technique for figuring out inherited problems even before there have been any DNA tests attainable. Breeders will in no way do away with inherited illnesses with attempt matings for the undemanding reason that there are such countless mutations and... you are able to no longer consistently become conscious of people who're companies. additionally, if a service to service attempt mating occurs then the threat of producing an affected animal is 25% so the possibility nevertheless exists that an affected should not be created from each and every mating, to no longer point out by that factor it is too late... so why blindly mate with out understanding no remember if a mutation exists with the opportunity of propagating extra of the comparable problem? this could be a silly attitude noticeably now whilst there are such countless DNA tests and wellbeing displays attainable. the subject isn't in basic terms with the subject "what if the two mothers and dads are companies of a recessive disease" yet extra so "what if in basic terms one determine is a service." it quite is whilst the subject maintains to circulate undetected.

Passing out is one measure of how serious an arrhythmia is, but it is certainly not the only one. Also, if you do pass out, it does not necessarily mean you're going to die. They are two separate things.
It sounds like you have had a lot of testing, but it does seem like your heart is affecting the quality of your life, and that just doesn't seem right. I would keep trying to find an answer, if I were you. I hope things get better for you.

From what you wrote here,here is my thinking;1)you are a young person,no risk factories of heart disease;no hisrty of hypertension,diabetic,not smoke father still living(good genes),no previous heart disease(including congenital disease).2)you has been check by many doctor and tell you are ok.3)your cardiac arrhythmia is benign type;pvc or pac I guess,due to too much stress or too much coffee or co.drinking.I hope you are not use "drugs"4)you are a very nervous type person and not exercise regularly,then can explain why you have fast heart beat even moving around.
The conclusion is;The chance you drop dead due to heart condition is very,very small.Relax enjoy life!.

I think you are exaggerating your cardiac problem in your mind making yourself symptomatic,maybe you should consider asking your dad about seeing a psychologist about you concerns about premature death.
