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

Gosh, I would explore the idea that it is your thyroid meds. I am sending you a private message.
I have had SVT along with afib and apart from the clot risk from the afib, docs told me it was not life-threatening. That may depend on the cause.
A beta blocker or calcium channel blocker can help but if the tachycardia slows, then your heartbeat will be slow. This just happened to my daughter. She had to go off the beta blocker but it was necessary to taper.
If the primary reason for this is your thyroid meds, then the beta blocker is a medicine prescribed to address the side effects of another medicine, something that happens a lot. Did your doc suggest a further decrease in the thyroid meds? What do your thyroid tests tell you?
