I'm worried about my heart monitor results that show tachycardia

Please tho realize that I delayed my first diagnosis is why I wanted to let you know it can get serious in a hurry. The echo will show more that the ekg and it's a good idea. I was also on a beta blocker and that's great also. Please realize that it's a lot easier to fix a problem before it gets into later stages. Mine started from a flu bug that I didn't treat right away and my heart swelled up due to water build up around the heart. My only symptoms were shortness of breath when lying down. So in my case yes different but at first I didn't get looked at until it got to the point I had to be rushed to the er and within a week had a pacemaker. So im so glad your on it. Have a good day

thank you for your reply. i'm sorry for what you went through.my husband has Afib, diebetes and a decreased muscle in his heart so i understand what your saying. right now i feel great. yesterday i felt great until my former pcp messgaed me and said my monitor showed tarchacadia then i was anxious and my heart was racing. our situations though are very different. i have pushed for appointments, pushed for specialists and went to the ER as necessary. i never delayed being seen. as i have health anxiety. i trust this new pcp. he spent a lot of time with me and for a first visit covered everything. all my questions were answered. im having a echo even though he didnt think it was necessary since my monitor results he said wasnt that bad. he didnt think waiting several weeks to see a cardiologist was a problem and i definetly am not in the position to need a pacemaker. i knew even reading my monitor results that my heart never skipped a beat, it never stopped. so thats my situation.
