  1. Yesterday around 12 midnight my heart started to rise and it got to 190hr and i could not breathe and my fiance and father called the ambulance

    by the time they came it went down to 160 and then by the time i got to the hospital it was at 104 they ran blood test and chest x rays

    The test they ran were
    cbc + automated Diff
    Sed Rate
    Prothrombin Time and inr plasma
    activated partial thromboplastin time
    Metabolic Panel
    tsh
    cpk
    troponin t serum
    magnesium serem
    c reactive protein
    potassium was low 3.2
    glucose was high 118
    biliribun high 1.8
    Wbc count high 11.1
    hematocrit low 36.9
    auto neutrophil high 8.5
    they ran cardiac enzymes twice in 6 hours and said they were ok
    the stuff i named above were low or high
    i have
    POTS
    GERD
    GILBERTS SYNDROME
    1ST DEGREE AV BLOCK
    any 1 have an experience like this ?
    keep in mind the heart rate did not come upon standing as usual it came when i was lying down which was fairly odd because my HR only tends to go up when i stand
    i have no clue what happen but i never want to feel that way again
    they did not admit me and told me to follow up with cardio pcp and neuro
    they said x rays and blood test did not show anything alarming so they let me go
    but i have no idea why my HR went to 190
    i have had many many blood test urine test and just recently skin biopsy and ct scans which could not find anything conclusive just here and there minor things
    they did ct scans on chest abdomen and pelvis said all was normal
    did NCV AND EMG NORMAL
    i am not quite sure were to go or what to do because no 1 has been able to tell me what has caused my POTS
    and last night my HR went to 190 and it was the worse i have felt in my life
    any help ?
  2. OK I am wondering is it better not to find your cause for POTS after doctors have ran many many test and hope it was caused by a virus sudden onset type thing or is it better to find a cause and deal with that sickness .....I am happy they can't find anything really bad but I am frustrated because we can't treat a cause so the pots can go away .....double edged sword ?
