    Hello, I know you posted 2 months ago but I'm wondering how you are doing? Did you stop and did you ever figure out if you have svt?

      I do have svt and my cardio doc has me on atenolol 25mg that has been controling it, so im thinking I pro never had anxiety to begin with.

      I miss read that part 😆. I've only recently been diagnosed with svt. I'm not on any medication since my attacks arent bad but it's my high heart rate that bothers me. I try to rest to help with my anxiety which I feel triggers my attacks. Maybe you can have your doctor run some test to see your stress/anxiety level.

      Yes have had every test in the book on my heart and anxiety levels, nothing is wrong with my heart except the svt, and anxiety levels are down as well, medication is doing the trick for both.
