Many, Many Types...: Arrhythmias come in many different forms: sinus arrhythmia is the normal variation of the heart by inhaling vs exhaling.
Premature, isolated beats from the upper chamber or lower chamber are also benign arrhythmia.
Atrial arrhythmias (coming from the upper chambers and be less dangerous)
ventricular arrhythmias (coming from the lower chambers are more dangerous)
symptoms are different for each.
