Sick Sinus Syndrome

Sick sinus syndrome is characterised by malfunction of the heart's natural pacemaker. If this happens, the heart can transiently slow down to the point where it may cause the patient to become dizzy or even blackout. In this video, i discuss the sick sinus syndrome. A full transcript is available at www.drsanjayguptacardiologist.com

    I discovered I had this after running a 5k event when I was 49. I flatlined for over 1 minute whilst asleep one night, fortunately I was wearing a monitor and doctors noticed it ( I woke up feeling unwell!) I was hooked up to a temporary pacemaker and had permanent one fitted the next day. Now I have been having more dizzy spells when my heart needs more oxygen, so getting that checked out - my doctor thinks the pacemaker telemetry needs adjusting so hoping this will get me back to normal 🥰

    I have just recently stumbled on your ch - TY for your content. I'm in my mid 30s now and have dealt with bradycardia, orthostatic hypotension, and syncope [poss seizures] since my teens (ad well as CP on and off and abdom pain constantly [dx NAFLD this year and GP several years ago]). I also coded when I was in my early 20s (thankfully i was already in the CCU b/c i was working as a care tech). Even after the code, in the ER, they told me I was perfectly healthy and sometimes people just pass out and we dont know why, despite my nurse manager telling the staff it looked like Afib on the monitor upstairs. I followed up with a cardiologist and ever since all I've heard is "you just have an athletic heart" meanwhile my resting HR is usually 45-55 and BP ranges 80-95/60-80 (occasionally there are spikes but most of the spikes just put me into the range that is clinically "normal" and "healthy"). So TY for this info b/c I feel like this may explain what's been going on for so long.

    Thank you. I often worry about sick sinus syndrome. I feel some of the monitors I’ve used in the past were not picking up on the rhythms. While I don’t strictly rely on my Applewatch for HR numbers, it does show when my heart rate has up to 200 and then it will go down to 32. I explained these numbers to my electrophysiologist but he persist that my heart is in great condition. I do feel symptoms when my heart rate is high but I don’t feel anything when it goes low. I am naturally exhausted; honestly I don’t know what it feels like to be well rested anymore. I’m on a small dose of beta blocker. Started taking that 4 months ago. Feeling a lot better but occasionally I het those up and down heart rates. It’s very scary. I hate to bug my doctor about this all the time but I think having a recorder like what you mentioned; it’s called a loop recorder in the U.S., will really help put my mind at ease and my doctor will get to see for himself what’s been going on in my heart. I had an echocardiogram, does sick sinus show up on there? I’ve had a lot of tests done but I still feel like something is going on my heart. Why would my heart rate go to 200 and within the next few minutes, go to 38?

I feel like my current cardiologists are just being passive and not truly trying to find a diagnosis and just telling me I have to deal with it without putting in the work. The doctors just want to medicate without doing the work

    Same here, I have a slow heartbeat BUT my cardiologist says, "no symptoms, no problem" but I just have to come and see Doctor Gupta and see what he says 🙂 heart rate sits between 53 and 63 at rest...

    I so appreciate your videos. I have had three abrasions. One for atrial flutter, two for atrial afib. Still have issues with afib now with more of an increased heart rate. Comes and goes and comes without warning. Very frustrating. Have a Reveal link cardiac implanted.

    hi Doctor, i am a software engineer working for an American firm. i really appreciate your channel and contribution. my dad recently had Mitral Valve Replacement surgery. Doctor placed SJM mechanical valve in there. but i am slightly worried about sounds coming out of the chest. its a metallic tick sound but sometimes its a little flashy sound too. am i overthinking? or something to worry about? and when will this sound go away or it will be there for rest of the life?

    I’m 46 yrs old, pacemaker for 8 yrs, bradycardia original diagnosis. Sick sinus syndrome, tachycardia, had an ablation 7 years ago, felt better. Tachycardia has come back . Taking metoprolol er 25mg daily. Eliquis 5mg bid. Symptoms are worsening, dr wants to put me on corlanor before another ablation. Do you recommend corlanor? I don’t like taking medication as it is, but I want to feel better and return to my routine, workouts etc.

    If all Drs were like this one... Amazing! I wish you were my cardiologist! I am dealing with Afib with RVR, and PAC. I'm getting a lot of Afib attacks at night while laying down PACs that turn into Afib. I am taking Diltiazem, Flecainide, Pardaxa. Though it seems Flecainide and Diltiazem isn't preventing Afib with RVR attacks, unfortunately.

    My wife who is 38 only sometimes experiences excessive fatigue and dizziness when we've exercised for more than 15 minutes moderate intensity. When we compare our heart rates i'm usually at like 160bpm and she's at like 100-120bpm right at the end of a set. I feel like her heart's not beating fast enough to meet the demands of the exercise we both did. Weird thing is, she doesn't seem to have these symptoms when we do high-intensity short duration activity like sprinting. I'm thinking she's either going hypoglycemic or her endocrine system or sympathetic nervous system isn't producing the right stimulus to bump her heart rate up to meet the demand. Or should we also consider Sick Sinus Syndrome? How likely is it to show up like this, or in someone at this age? Thanks if you read this far

    Question; I’ve had silent sinus syndrome picked up on my MRI. I’m having noticeable muscle wasting o n My right hand and wrist , with off balance to my right, fatigue and now muscle weakness on the left side of my tongue ( I can’t roll that side anymore) do you have an idea if they are linked? My bloods are normal recently but before they were slightly high in iron and rbc folate was lower ?

    You are a great explainer. I am 84 and have SSS and probably bradycardia, because pausing was discovered in 2017 while in hospital recovery post triple hernia repair & a Medtronic Micra leadless pacemaker was implanted in the right ventricle set at 45 BPM. I also have permanent/chronic asymptomatic AF & hypertension which is under control. Intermittently I have taken Norvasc & Coreg and am currently taking Coreg. Is it possible that the SSS could be reversed if I substitute another honorific med for Coreg? And should the Micra be programmatically reset to within the 60-100 normal BPM, or should the new Abbott Dual Chamber leadless pacemaker be installed and the Micra turned off? Thank you

    Hi, could sick sinus syndrome be difficult to see in a dilated cardiomyopathy heart with moderate LV impairment and a pronounced LBBB pls? Would it show on an exercise tolerance test on an inclined treadmill? All symptoms there but I don’t think it’s been specifically mentioned. I would like to suggest it at next appointment Eps with with ablation 2004 Then ICD 2005-2012 Deterioration felt last 3 years Ef was 13 in 2004 but thankfully now around 40 Thanks

    Thank you Dr Gupta! About a year ago, while undergoing chemo for breast cancer, I would get extremely lightheaded after standing up, or after getting out of a car. I did fall a few times - but now Ive learned to stand - lower my head while I hold on to something, wait about 10 seconds for the feeling to pass through me before I walk. I literally feel the blood return down the back of my legs. Im taking Metoprolol for this which helps - but has not stopped it completely. Could this be SSS?
