Hello @ajmario,

I'd also like to add my welcome. Teresa has asked some insightful questions, and we look forward to getting to know you.

If it helps, I'd like to share that I've had palpitations, SVT or supraventricular tachycardia, since I was a teenager. SVT is a fast heart rate that starts in the upper chambers of the heart. About 2 years ago, I underwent a cardiac ablation procedure, (which "resets" the heart's electrical circuit), as my episodes were prolonged and occurred often. However, many people don't require any treatment for this kind of tachycardia, and some may be able to manage palpitations with beta blockers or calcium channel blockers prescribed by a cardiologist. Most people experience an improvement after SVT ablation, but there's a chance that palpitations may return, as they have in my case, and the procedure can be repeated.

@ajmario,could you share a few more details more about your symptoms, as @hopeful33250 mentioned?
