Type 1 Brugada Diagnosis

[sup3rmum]

I am a 29 year old female and i have been diagnosed with Brugada Syndrome and i am not on my 12th day in hospital. I started with dizziness and chest pain and finally came to hospital when i nearly fainted. The Brugada patter appeared straight away on my ECG without any 'provocation test' this was the first time i had heard of this condition. I was admitted to CCU and since had 24/7 monitoring awaiting for a ICD to be fitted. I want to make as many people aware of this condition and how important it is to get symtoms checked out, my 3 young children have to be tested now as there is a high chance of it being inherited.
