When I had tachycardia I always felt better after I sat down as a chance to catch my breath (and stop the possibility of falling from the dizziness). I seemed to get it when I was upset so I would try to mentally go to my 'happy place'. I would also eat a little something. Soon it would pass.

I have taken Verapamil for about five years and it has helped me immensely. I did go through a lot of trial and error with different drugs before settling on this one.

Good luck to you and let us know how your appointment went.

Thanks for the replies, they helped calm me down somewhat. Only one report was back and it has shown a mitral valve prolapse with regurgitation. Next stop... cardiologist, just what I need, another doctor. Hope everyone is having a low pain night, Lisa

Lisa..That is one of my diagnosis also..It can cause the tachcardia plus chest pain..Stress is not good with this aliment..When I feel it..If I lay down and nap.. most times I feel better in no time....Keep us posted...
