Taking beta blockers for SVT & I also have Sleep Apnea – Am I risk of Sudden Aryth Death Syndrome?

Written by admin on August 9, 2010 – 8:55 pm -

Please help. I have SVT and I am currently awaiting a further appointment following my test result for sleep apnea.
Can you die of Sudden Arythmic Death Syndrome or Sleep Apnea whilst taking Beta Blockers? Am I at risk?

I take a mild 1.25 mg of bisoprolol beta blocker, as any more than that reduces my blood pressure. (Symptoms of my SVT are very infrequent on medication. Cardiologist recommended ablation butI’m too scared. He stated that SVT is nothing to worry about but the internet suggests otherwise )
I will truly appreciate your advice please!
I am 30, slim and have a healthy lifestyle
