hi
six years ago i had where my heart was beating 178 beats a minute for about an hour very uncomfortable. went to docs he said maybe a panic attack. started to get eptopic beats and fluttering so the doc sent me for a heart scan (echo) tread mill test ect. My blood test all came back clear.
Had calcum score is was 0. Echo was fine nothing wrong. I had another of these attacks 8 months later only it did not last so long. Went back to my doc he did an ecg everything ok. I have had another 3 attacks the longest being 2yrs inbetween. The last one i had i actually called an albulance out and had the ecg going the whole time it did go down to 130 went to the docs he put me on beta blocker propodol. What i am worring about is maybe im suffering with svt and its been undiagnosed. I did ask the paramedic if it was an svt and he said no it goes over 200 beats and more. He said it was adenaline. The only thing i do seem to have when ever it happens its a period and bending forward and standing up quickly. I have had losts of ecgs in the past. all clear. By the way i do suffer with anxiety and panic attacks and have done since a child. My doc has now put it down to hormones & adrenaline i am 47 years old.
just wondered if anybody had had anything similar.
