According to Medical News Today, an irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia) may feel like a racing heart or fluttering. Many heart arrhythmias are harmless. However, if they are highly irregular or result from a weak or damaged heart, arrhythmias can cause severe and potentially fatal symptoms and complications. Arrhythmia might not cause noticeable symptoms. However, a doctor may detect an arrhythmia during a routine examination or after requesting an electrocardiogram (EKG). 6-12 ...million Americans suffer from some form of arrhythmia and close to 1 million are hospitalized each year. With early detection and current treatments, most people with arrhythmia conditions can lead long, healthy lives. Treatment depends on the type and seriousness of your arrhythmia. Some people with arrhythmias require no treatment. For others, treatments can include medication, making lifestyle changes, and undergoing surgical procedures. https://sports.yahoo.com/la-marcus-aldridge-retires-from-nb
