PSVT diagnosed

Question

PSVT diagnosed

Asked for Female, 18 Years

My sister recently had been diagnosed with PSVT where her heart rate is faster than normal. Her blood test also showed hyperthyroidism. I have attached the reports because I think we should go for second opinion before getting her tested with ESP & RFA as suggested by the doctor. Please help if we need second opinion or should go for the test.?
