I’m so sorry to hear this . I have had many ER visits with high heart rate in the 160’s-170’s.. so scary . I was also clammy and cold sweats , shaking a lot too . What did the Er say ???? Did they say all your tests came back normal??

Ohhh ok so your thyroid is off then ??? That could cause some issues then with that ... yes a stress test is good to do ... I had to have two of them !! And wear a holter monitor for a month
