Increased heart rate.

[C66t]

Hi everyone, my gp has organised an appointment Fri. For chest pain clinic as I had chest tightness and my Kardia 6l showed Unclassified. During the 1min reading pulse went to 140 then 120 and then 65. I showed gp following day and she wanted me to go straight to ed but then she looked at the ecg. Hospital rang me with appt for Fri am. I ve had pvc s before which was v different. Any thoughts re brief runs of high heart rate ? I ve had mostly "unclassified" readings since (I do ecg once a day so I have plenty readings for cardiologist Fri.) Sorry for rambling on but Im not sure what to expect from appt. I like to be prepared. Stay safe and well everyone.😊

Some 8 years ago I attended a rapid access chest pain clinic after seeing my GP with classic angina symptoms.I had an ECG and then a chat with a consultant who confirmed that I had classic angina symptoms.

I was put on a cocktail of drugs to reduce my BP, widen my arteries and stabalise my plaque/reduce my cholesterol and of course I was given a GTN spray.

It was a shock to the system and for me was the start of a few lifestyle changes... improving my fitness and loosing weight being key.

After a few months I rarely had need for the GTN spray.

I was called to my GP's once a year for a healthy heart review.

Last year I had a HA and needed two stents in my LAD.
