  • It took 4 coronary specialists in 4 countries over 50 years before I got correctly diagnosed as having SVT. I was usually given sedatives being regarded as an anxious female, then adenosine intravenously to correct heart rate. A brilliant doctor visiting Monterey hospital diagnosed my SVT as an electrical problem and gave me a catheter Ablation all done in 10 minutes!

    • It’s concerning how often doctors will dismiss SVT episodes. Mine became very active almost 10 years ago. Took providers 5 years to refer me to cards. I was always told I had medical anxiety and that if I’d stop focusing on the “funny feelings” in my heart, the sensation would “go away” and I’d forget how scared I was. That’s not how SVT works but as a stupid pleb I leaned there was no point in trying to reason with MDs.

  • I’m a victim of Pulseless Ventricular Tachycardia where my heart is beating so fast, you can’t feel a heartbeat. It’s been caught at 197bpm but that’s only the beginning. They discovered I have a very rare heart defect I was born with, known as Wolff, Parkinson, White Syndrome. That’s only part of the problem since I also get bradycardia and A-fib plus spontaneous blackouts. I’m so rare because I have a short circuit between the SA node and the AV node besides the normal pathway. So my poor heart gets two different signals and messing everything up. I now have an expensive loop heart monitor implanted in me that checks my heart 24/7. That’s so my Electrophysiologist can find each heart cell involved in the short circuit. In a rare procedure, he will have to destroy each rogue heart cell one cell at a time to stop the short circuit from happening again. That could take up to 10 hours and I cannot move, so I’ll be strapped to the table unconscious. Btw, I’ve now lived with this heart defect for 78 years, an accomplishment for this poor heart still beating in my chest.

    • @@hanz5300 Hanz, my case is rare and you should not judge your tachycardia against mine. My defect alone is one in a million, the odds of me living to my age is probably one in ten million. Back in the 1950’s when I was 10, nothing was known about heart rhythm problems when I blacked out for the first time I can remember. All I know is one second I was okay, the next I was on the ground or floor, wondering what happened. There are a number of things doctors can and will do for you. Medications is one, there are several things you can do to ease up you triggering your tachycardia. Anxiety is one thing, do not constantly think about it, stress is another trigger. Stop drinking anything with caffeine in it. Anything with a stimulant like caffeine in it can trigger it. So you will have to live a more calm, peaceful life. Of course I knew none of this at your age and I suffered because of it. I hope doctors can calm your heart down Hanz but you have to work on keeping yourself calm. By the way, I’m in the United States if you are wondering. Good luck, let me know how things work out for you, just keep track of this post on You Tube.

Chocolates are just one thing, like I already explained to the last poster on this subject. Since you have access to the internet, you can research for answers to questions you may have. When I was your age, I used to plan things years in advance. Now I cannot even plan what I’ll do in the next second because my birth defect can stop my heart between the first half of a heartbeat and the second half. I cannot worry about my life ending in an instant because stress can trigger tachycardia. I am not a doctor so I cannot give you medical advice but I can try to answer questions you may have because they have happened to me.

If you are in an episode, start acting like you are trying to poop and pushing really hard. In an episode, bending over and violently coughing can help get you out of it If you are in it for more then 20 minutes and these techniques haven’t worked to get you out, go to the hospital. If you dont have someone to drive you call an ambulance. driving can be stressful and you dont want to faint while driving.

  • Wonderful video, and extremely well explained. I had a case of atrial flutter (HR about 120 to 130 BPM). This was very alarming, as my resting rate is normally in the high 50's. My cardiologist performed catheter ablation, and thus far (after 2 years), the flutter has NOT returned. I am reasonably sure that this was caused by fibrous tissue in my heart as a result of alcohol use (2-3 IPA's per day for several years). I think alcohol, even in moderate amounts on a regular basis, causes heart damage. Needless to say, it has altered my view of moderate alcohol use "being good" for the heart. That belief, IMHO, is perpetrated by the alcohol industry itself. So, hopefully others can learn from my own experience. I am very fortunate to still be here, and had a great physician who helped me with this issue. I was 66 years old when this ablation occurred, and in otherwise good physical condition (not obese, 5'8", 145 lbs, and a regular exerciser). Be VERY careful in buying into the idea that small amounts of alcohol, regularly, are good for you. Not everybody !! Do some reading up on this subject in documented medical literature and you will see that I am correct.

    • My first two episodes were when I was drinking heavy. I haven't drank for nearly 3 years but I had a 3rd episode a few weeks ago. I was surprised because I thought after I quit drinking they would go away. I later suspected the last one was caused by taking a high-dose turmeric supplement. I can't be positive but the timing made sense. My cardiologist recommended the ablation but I felt I wanted to research first. It's interesting and insightful to hear others' experiences.

  • I was diagnosed 18 years ago at 22 when I was 6 months pregnant with my son. Said it could be a pregnancy thing, but it wasn’t. I have an extra pathway causing re-entry svt. My heart rate has gone over 200 bpm with the highest at 300 something, which was very scary to say the least! Treated with adenosine time and time again. I’m a pro at it now the paramedic and er docs are always blown away. I’ve learned if you keep calm during an episode and when given adenosine it helps tremendously. Ive Also if this helps anyone, I’ve learned that sitting up abruptly almost always helps it to stop. I lay in the bathtub with the shower on and sit up a few times. Only had 2-3 occasions where it’s lasted hours. I had a horrible doctor try an ablation and stop before finishing because I was moving. You’re only partially sedated with someone touching your groin area… if he was patient 5 minutes longer I was out cold for the next 12 hours somehow. I need to go back but after that experience i’ve been hesitant as well as hoping they’d be less frequent. Adenosine hasn’t worked a time or two in the past few years so I am coming around more and more. I had an episode night before last and I am completely wiped out getting winded walking. At 40 with a house and children, this is difficult to say the least. Luckily I have great kids that know what to do and just sit quietly with me, which is exactly what you need. Thanks for listening 😊 I wish you all long healthy lives and pray everyone finds solution.

    • Ranger 621 Please keep in mind.... when encountering a person with this rapid heart rate..... often times just the shock of drinking ice cold water stops it for me and my mom both. Much easier than the valsalva maneuver. Her doc taught her that. Was a miracle for me when the maneuver wasn’t working. Instantly dropped my heart rate from 150’s back to 70’s. And i Just recently found in this comment that just holding your breath for as long as you can does the trick and that’s all I’ve been doing lately and it’s working better than anything

    • Did some of your episodes last for 1 or 2 or more hours? Are you over 50 years old? I ask because that's my situation, or was, I had an ablation done a few days ago. I'm over 58 yrs old. Prior to my 50's, I rarely had SVT episodes. In my late 50's, or starting a couple of years ago, they slowly became more frequent and in the last 3-6 months were happening weekly!

Then problems came back and here I am ten years later with IST and POTS. 🥴 tbh though I’d rather have pots than svt. Every episode with svt I thought I was going to literally die. With pots I just feel like crap a lot! 😂

I find i am often short of breath under no load or short of breath under a load. And then sometimes i find i am not short of breath under either of the above. I have controlled hypertension and and also restricted blood flow to both my feet at times the feel like ice block even on a hot summers day . I often experience a rapid heart rate over 120 or above 100. The last highest rapid rate i captured was @ 159bpm but usually will be 125 to 139bpm. Thankyou.

  • This was so helpful thank you! I’m a paramedic & had an episode of SVT myself ( rate of 260 and super symptomatic! Luckily a valsalva manoeuvre worked amazingly), I caught it and reported it to my GP as I have a family history of heart conditions, my GP completely disregarded it by stating ‘all tachycardia’s are SVT’. This has validated my concerns for his statement and flippancy and I’ll definitely be trying again to get some investigations!
