Rakhi's health had begun to fail around four months ago when she suddenly started perspiring and a sense of constant fatigue had settled in her. She began to feel increasingly dizzy and weak with each passing day and had to sit down every time she felt giddy.
Rakhi mistook her symptoms as 'panic attacks' or 'stress-induced' and continued to push herself tirelessly at work until one day her symptoms deteriorated further.
On July 1, Dr Vanita Arora after finishing an electrophysiology (EP) study procedure at the cath Lab found Rakhi waiting outside her OPD Clinic, pushed in a corner, having one of her 'panic attacks'.
Rakhi was instantly shifted to the electrophysiology cath lab where the doctor did her EP study.
Her EP study showed an extra wire which had existed since birth in the electrical system of her heart and was causing the drastic increase in her heartbeat.
Post a 45-minute successful procedure of 'electrophysiological study and radiofrequency ablation' Rakhi was relieved of her 'panic attacks'.
