There is no easy answer. The best thing you should do is to consult your cardiologist or electrophysiologist.

The prognosis and treatment depend on the type of arrhythmia and how much the heart is damaged.

It all depends on what kind of arrhythmia it is. If your heart is OK otherwise most arrhythmias are more of a nuisance than a danger.

Depends on the type of arrhythmia. Some can be potentially be dangerous leading to strokes, or death while others are more symptomatic and less problematic.
