When Adi thought my frequent collapses and clutching of the chest following our (even more) frequent fights were all an act, this was what was really going on with my heart.
Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome (WPW)
Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome (WPW) is a syndrome of pre-excitation of the ventricles of the heart due to an accessory pathway known as the bundle of Kent. This accessory pathway is an abnormal electrical communication from the atria to the ventricles.
While the vast majority of individuals with a bundle of Kent remain asymptomatic throughout their entire lives, there is a risk of sudden death associated with the syndrome. Sudden death due to WPW syndrome is due to the effect of the accessory pathway on tachyarrhythmias in these individuals.
Now tell me, which caring and devoted boyfriend would dismiss a life-threatening condition as "an attention-seeking stunt"?? That said, I'd willingly pay $50 to anyone who could give me one less reason not to hate him. Any takers?
Hur hur hur...
