Welcome to the forums. There are different types of arrhythmia with differing causes and outlooks: the word arrhythmia literally just means that the heart is beating in a different rhythm to normal. Do you know which specific arrhythmia you have? There are others, but some examples would be bradycardia, SVT, atrial fibrillation, arrhythmia resulting from a heart block, or something like long QT syndrome.
