Dear Closet Monster. I have had the same symptoms. I am lucky as my primary care provider believes my report of symptoms. He has ordered meds (metropopolol) and a statin. And he keeps referring me and testing me though results come back normal except for tachycardia. I am now on CPAP as my oxygen level falls at night while I am asleep causing my heart to beat too fast. I have now been referred to a cardiologist and a pulmonologist. I am lucky that my doc is willing to believe that I am just "not right" -- shortness of breath and what I call a "fuzzy head". Good luck in finding a doctor who will listen.

I am still on the beat to try and find answers regarding my SVT's. I was to speak to the Mayo Clinic doctors however, my insurance is not in their network, so that was a huge blow for me. I just needed 20 minutes tops, and unfortunately, did not get it. So, I will continue to monitor conversations with people here and research myself to find these answers. Unfortunately, medical help where I live is not great, and many times you wait for a doctor, for many months, and then you get conflicting information, or advice. I am going to stay positive, and research research research.
