There are definite differences in treatment for SVT and VT. In my previous comment, I was referring to SVT (atria are involved, not ventricles).
Different comments have referred to one or the other.
VT usually required a Pacemaker/Defibrillator.

Yes, letters can be confusing…VT vs. SVT etc.

You can’t feel the difference. One is life-threatening (VT can progress into ventricular fibrillation), while SVT won’t.
