My first times having SVT

In this video I’m going over what my first experiences with SVT were like. This is one of many videos I’ll be making covering the topic of arrhythmias because I’ve been through the ringer! Nothing I say in these is medical advice I’m just saying what I’ve experienced and done in the past. Thanks!

I have A-fib and will be going for my 2nd Ablation in a week. I am doing a major lifestyle change hoping it will help. I quit smoking 10+ years ago; losing weight; do not use salt much and little to no caffeine and alcohol. I take the meds also and still I do get episodes of Afib. I holding out hope that the re-do ablation will help so I can get off the beta blockers meds, for they slow you down over time. Been on beta blockers for almost 10-years. So hang in there and hope for better times.

My first time was 7th grade playing football at recess and I just sat it out I told my recess teacher. But he had me sit down wait until it come back to rhythm. Because he probably thought it was normal due to playing football
I also feel when my heart skips a beat and then when it finally comes back to rhythm

After multiple heart surgeries and AFibs for 20+ years i've been having SVT attacks for the past 2 years. I'm on amiodarone. I'm hoping it will go away soon 🙏🙏🙏

I hope it does!

Have you had any ablations?? Either for the SVT or afib? I hear the SVT ablations are very successful.

Does your heart rate bounce around during any episodes or just go up around 200 bpm? I get a few different episodes. 1 - shoots up to 150 to 200 then just goes back to normal. 2 - bounces all around 40 bpm to 180 bpm. 3 - bounces around 100 bpm to 160 bpm. Bending seems to be a big trigger which is strange. I wouldn’t care about it if it would stop happening when I’m driving. The presyncope is horrendous

Yea I get several different episodes. All day I get PVCs which are irregular heartbeats. They think that’s what triggers my SVT and after wearing several Halter Monitors they discovered I also have Afib. Which makes since as to why my heart sometimes feels like it’s jumping all around and out of rhythm. When I get SVT it’ll usually cause Afib for short spells as it’s happening. My heart will go from really fast to slow and out of rhythm then back to really fast. It repeats until it hopefully goes back into sinus rhythm.
