Tiredness a few days after SVT

[daisy2311]

I have had many episodes of SVT now but after my most recent one on Friday (200bpm reverted with adenosine) I feel particularly tired today. Has anyone else experienced this?

Hi,

Yes I would this is normal - my heart reaches 240bpm during an episode and I too feel wiped out for a couple of days. If you feel any worse I would always suggest a call to your arrhythmia nurse. Wishing you well.

Hi, yes I always feel wiped out for about 3 days when I've had an SVT episode. I feel I have to rest in bed because its like you've run a marathon. Are you on any medication?

I'm on bisoprolol, 2.5mg. I had an ablation on 12.06.23 and told to come off meds afterwards, but two weeks later I had another SVT so was told to go back on them. I didn't actually think the tiredness could be caused by the bisoprolol but likely it may have contributed.
