cma Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 Hello everyone.I have to admit it's been a year since I last logged and posted something on to this website. I was doing pretty good for almost a year. Heart rate still high without medication, but a lose dose of beta blockers really helps me.On the 19th of october I had a traumatic experience of SVT. I don't know how many of you have it. I never faint I just have a high heart rate and occasionally a sudden SVT. One second my heart rate is normal ( with a help of beta blockers of course ) the next it is raising to 200 bpm. Nothing helps - blowing in to the syringe, maneuver of the vein that's on the neck, nothing. I had to call an ambulance was taken to the ER and given intravenously adenosine, I believe it's called so, but I am not sure. The drug gives you a terrible feeling all over the body, seems that the muscles are expanding enormously. It happened again yesterday. The funny thing is that both times before the tachycardia I burped and I was thinking if this is what causes it or was it just a coincidence. I would also like to know if anyone of you have the episodes of SVT or just orthostatic tachycardia?Thank you so much for taking your time to read this.P.S. sorry for the mistakes, english is my second language.

firewatcher Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 I get a tachycardic spike if I burp or sneeze. It was caught on a pulse oxygen meter. My HR settled back down after the burp. I think it has to do with chest cavity pressure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elenapap11 Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 Burping is something that i do a lot since i got Dysautonomia and it usually provokes tachycardia especially after i have eaten.However for me burping is good because if i don't, i feel that i can't breathe and i have fainting episodes.
