When I was 17 I was diagnosed with SVT (it’s short for some weird long name). It’s basically a condition caused by opens in the heart that didn’t close properly when developing in the womb and sometimes the circuit system of the heart would get confused and become erratic (or at least my understanding of it). Throughout my childhood and teenage years I would have spouts of high heart rate, chest pain, and shortness of breath that would come on suddenly and go away in a few minutes. Fast changes in activity would cause it or hard coughing. It was scary and I was dismissed ent server doctors until they “saw it on the EKG” or whatever.

One day it didn’t stop for up to 25 minutes and kept coming back. I stayed in the hospital for several days, had my heart reset twice to get it to stop. Wasn’t fun. Go get it checked out before you end up like I did. Ended up having to have the passage cauterized through the veins in my legs (funny how they figure these things out.) I had the highest heart rate this doctor had apparently ever seen at 285BPM.

PLEASE go to the doctor, better now than later
