My oldest had WPW. He had an ablation two summers ago. The doctors told us they think a bout with mono a few summers earlier may have been what triggered his WPW to start using his pathway. He began to become extremely fatigued. Grades dropped from A-B to C-D He could barely hold his head up. I thought he was depressed. An EKG showed WPW. His cardiologist did not hesitate to order an ablation and it was done only weeks later. His heartrate during the procedure hit 400. <br />I pray that your little boy will never have any issues with WPW, but that isn't what our doctors told us about WPW. Maybe it's because of how sick our son was when they found it and your son isn't having issues. Obviously I'm not a doctor and you need to listen to yours. But be aware as he ages, that things could change. We are thankful today our son is a healthy active college student doing well in school. WPW free. He won't have to see a cardiologist again until he is 40 unless he has symptoms. Believe me, it is very freeing. LOLAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
