I’m 21, I have been going to the heart doctors for the last 8 years of my life and they keep saying oh you’ll grow out of this etc. I’ve had a heart cath done before. I just want to know how to fix what is going on with me. I was also in the hospital the other day with a resting heart rate of 170. I’m on bystolic 5mg but it doesn’t seem to help.

Hi:
You are way to young for a resting heart rate of 170. You need an other opinion by a new Cardiologist. Contact the Cleveland Clinic. Men’s hearts and women’s hearts are totally different.

Yes I was hydrated but I was having chest pain and dizziness as well.

@jacob98898 yes i read that and chest pain is a funny thing. Being someone that has heart issues for a long time i used to confuse muscle strain and even acid reflux as chest pain. The funny thing that used to drive me crazy was which one was causing it. The heart and top of the stomach are both in the same spot. With me i finally used another symptom to help me know it was my pulse. When my heart went into an arrythmia i could tell by my pulse it got really fast to the point i could not feel it. But i think you would know a full blown arrythmya since you get very short of breath at the same time. But as others suggest get another opinion. I am not a doctor the things i mentioned is only what i felt. I hope you the best.

I wouldn't worry alot about the term Sinus Tachycardia anyone including me with a transplanted heart has that. It means you have a normal sinus rhythm and tachycardia means fast heart rate. Mine averages 100-110 resting and can normally go up to 140 when im like climbing the stairs. Before my transplant tho i had ventricular tachycardia which is very dangerous. My daughter went through a similar case as yours her heart rate at rest with a normal heart is around 100. She went to my dr that also treated me back when i had a bad heart and he couldn't find anything either. He feels she has a lot of anxiety and needs to find ways to relax. So a second opinion is an option but maybe its something not heart related. For a healthy young person like yourself your heart while exercising can easily go ip to 70-80% of your max and at 21 your max is 220-21 or 199. Now you would not want it to stay there very long but you got some room. The say while exercising you should shoot for 70-80% of you max. My only concern is when you say it was 170 while resting and it was a normal sinus rhythm. Very odd. One thing for me i know is when I'm a little dehydrated my heart rate avg goes up. Do you drink plenty of water? That would also help lower your heart rate. Let us know what you find out?
