I'm hoping your comments mean that you're doing better now and are no longer in pain.
For those who don't know, supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) means that from time to time a person's heart beats very fast for a reason other than exercise, high fever, or stress.
Standard medical protocols advise patients to call 911 or seek emergency services immediately if they have a fast heart rate and they:
* Faint or feel as though you are going to faint.
* Have severe shortness of breath.
* Have chest pain.
* Have symptoms of a heart attack or stroke.
