Supraventricular tachycardia

[Peahenny]

Hello years ago when I was 21 I started getting episodes of fast heart rate and was diagnosed with supraventicular tachycardia but have only took beta blockers for the past 6 or 7 years. Recently I've also been diagnosed with sinus tachycardia. I get chest pains everyday and palpitations and sometimes the pains spread to my upper back, jaw, left arm especially. I also feel lightheaded and breathless and dizzy. Sometimes my lips turn blue. I'm just wondering does anyone else have the symptoms with these type of tachycardias please? Thank you x

I get chest pains, palpitations and cyanosis (blue lips) with NSVT and the impression from my cardiologist is that isn’t out of the ordinary.

If you are under a cardiologist it might be worth a review. And if not it might be worth speaking with your GP about a referral to cardiology.
