With an accessory pathway, the AV node can be bypassed and fast impulses can be sustained to the ventricles. I suggest that you see a cardiologist who specializes in rhythm disturbances called an electrophysiologist. You may need an EP study where the electrical pathways are mapped and where an accessory pathway can be eliminated with the application of radio frequency energy to the internal heart tissue. Also, medications can be used to treat this problem. I hope you find this information useful.
