I\'m Judith, age 72 with a birthday coming this spring. I have bradycardia (slow heart rate), which can get down to 38 bpm, and supraventricular tachycardia, known as SVT. But the SVT is intermittent and occasional, although it used to happen more often. It is most likely to happen with stress or exertion. Also have Grade II diastolic dysfunction, which translates to symptomatic heart failure, but doing relatively OK so far.

I think that you need a pacemaker!
Hi Judith
I am also 72. I have been diagnosed with SVT also. Iam taking 20 mgs of Propanolol for the irregular heart beat. I started having a irregular heartbeat in my late 20 s. It was PVCs. Iam in the process of having it checked out again. I have bad Anxiety that is hard to control. This may be contributing to my increased events with my heart.
Hi Judith!
I hope you continue to do well!!!
