how fast was your heart beat with the SVT? Seems like Bronchiectasis in general causes lower spo2 and also faster heart rate especially if you battle chronic infection.

My personal best (or worse?) was 220 in the CICU the day after lung surgery.
Most times I could hit 150 or 165, usually occurring after albuterol.
Funny, but I never got the shakes or anything. Once I had a 150 bpm for over an hour while driving and after complaining for years, I then finally referred myself to a pair of cardiologists.
