Experiences with

Tachycardia

Hi, Does anyone have any problems with tachycardia and cfs? I have bad chronic Fatigue Symptoms but have been told that it could be due to tachycardia? any similar experiences?

Hi all In October I was taken straight to hospital by my GP with a heart rate of 160bpm. I am fine now but I am very aware of my heartbeat now. I go out shopping and I am not afraid but at night I sometimes find myself thinking is this it just a lifetime of medication? I had an echocardiogram and

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 asked about how long I should sit out post ablation tachycardia on Saturday and got lots of very kind replies and many asking for an update. So I did go to A&E and after three hours was admitted to the A&E ward. HR was 95 but trying to convert back to normal speed.

Hi, does anyone have any tips for this diagnosis? Had an ablation that hasn’t worked although I’ve been told it can take more than one procedure is the medication temporary or permanent? Any tips & coping strategies would be very appreciated 🙏

I have constant fast heart rate. I have been prescribed Ivabradine. I have tried many medications in the past but they either dont work or the side affects are bad. What are peoples experiences with this drug. Thanks

Can anyone tell me of their experience, please, of undergoing a cardioversion for AFib/tachycardia?

I’ve been experiencing tachycardia every day for 18 months. Heart rate is totally normal lying down, POTs ruled out as HR sometimes fine standing. Things like walking upstairs can cause jump from 70 - 160, having a shower causes at least HR of 130 every day.

Me again got it wrong on my last post I meant to say reflex sinus tachycardia, not reflex tachycardia sorry all

Hi again, my symptoms are back, breathing laboured/gasping, swollen neck, whistling nose and tachycardia. On 125levo and 40mcg T3 split dose.

Much of this sounds reasonable but I was rather concerned about the tachycardia. After some googling I came across the following “Non-sustained ventricular tachycardia (NSVT).

it feels a bit final but consultant has said I have complex arrhythmias and living with the tachycardia and HOCM is stressful I am hoping for more stability.

Supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) is a rapid abnormal heart rhythm that begins in the upper chambers of the heart. The atria are above the ventricles, hence the term supraventricular. The term tachycardia refers to a rapid heartbeat of over 100 beats per minute.

Has anyone with an atrial tachycardia still getting flutters, palpitations and odd chest sensations like prickliness and pressure pain in arm and shoulder after a year on nebivolol initially 5mg but currently at 3.75mg daily.

Anyway, I just got the result which stated : Atrial Tachycardia. Can anyone explain how a trace of 30 seconds which had a consistent heart rate of 64/66 could be interpreted as tachycardia ? Just one more thing to get stressed about ! Annie

May 2022 was travelling home when my apple watch went into alarm high heart rate. Was actually 150 yards from West Cumberland Hospital 1-30 in morning went to A & E said 4 hours wait. Went to desk and even as was giving details was asked to go into majors. They said as no other symptoms my watch probably

I reduced from 3.5 grains to 3 because back in 2001 I didn’t have tachycardia at 3 grains and my TSH was 1.6, Ft3 4.2 and Ft4 was 13.2, at 3.5 grains I have tachycardia sometimes and my TSH is 0.008.

I had my ablation for atrioventricular nodal reentry tachycardia (AVNRT) which is a common form of supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) on December 18. I also have AF which has been successfully ablated for 5 years now.

If you have been diagnosed with Postural Tachycardia Syndrome (PoTS) or are waiting to see a medical professional, our PoTS Discussion Guide could be invaluable when explaining the condition.

I would be grateful for anyone's opinion as I am a bit of a worrier and the tachycardia bit bothered me. How can your heart go fast for 3 seconds and be recorded.
