My new born son has Arrhythmia. Anyone else experienced this? Seeking guidance, advice, reassurance.

My son was born on the 15th September 2020. They detected a heart murmur during the birth so sent him to the Neonatal unit for further scans and monitoring. The heart monitoring was recorded and sent off for analysis, which then had them diagnose him with an Arrhythmia. He is to be given Propanolol and monitored over this coming weekend. As you can imagine myself and his mother are worried and I'm here seeking any advice, guidance and reassurance from other parents that may have experienced this themselves.

Many thanks,

Luke.
