Ventricular Tachy Episodes

I have only had my pacemaker for a year, I am 30 yrs old. I have SVT and Abrupt Bradycardia. I have gone through 3 ablations, 2 rf ablations and 1 cryoabation. I have always had atrial tachy but now this time when I got my pacemaker checked its showd 7 Ventricular High rate episodes and 0 atrial episodes, is this dangerous? Does this mean I have Ventricular Tachycardia? I have been feeling like I am going to collapse lateley and its a scary feeling. I also had 135 rate drop episodes. I have a rate responsive pacemaker. Please let me know if you think this is serious & now do I have Vtach?

Thank you for responding, I try to relax but then when that feeling that I am going to collapse comes on it reminds me all over again and scares me. & the fact that I hava horrible family history makes me worry. I go tuesday to see him so I am hoping that he tells me the same as you :)

Thanks again
