Pain in my chest

Hi guys, 

I just wanted to check if this was normal with SVT. 

I have recently been diagnosed with SVT, about 4 weeks ago now. I have been getting strong sharp pains in my chest on and off since my last attack 4 weeks ago. 

It can be very painful, and it's obviously worrying me. 

I just wanted to see if anyone else has this, or is it something I should worry about? 

I have a GP app for it on Monday, just to be on the safe side. 

Thanks everyone!

    Someone once told me not to worry about anything unless or until told to! You have done exactly the right thing by making an appointment with your doctor. Good luck on Monday, hope it goes well.

    Hi. I only have occasional SMALL jabs, so PLEASE  get yourself to a hospital . I have not seen another complaint like yours. Good luck.

    Hi,

    I haven't had sharp stabbing pains from my SVT so go see your doctor and get it checked out.

    However, last year I did start to get huge chest pain attacks, to the point I was doubling over and could hardly breathe. I presented to emergency mid one of these episodes and turns out my gall bladder was infected and had to be removed.

    Good luck and go see your doctor!!!
