PSVT
I am a 26 year old female and was diagnosed with psvt when i was 16. I have been on lanoxin for the last 10 years, I have also been a smoker for all of this time. I have not had a psvt episode in the past 7 years until last week, went to the ER and was told all was fine. I was also on a holter monitor and of course it did not happen while i was on it. Mine seem to happen when i wake up from sleeping..like i wake up with a high heart rate, of course i also have anxiety disorder which makes it worse. I am so scared of this ruining my heart...I am young and i want to live and there are so many things i want out of life. I guess some words of comfort that this is not going to kill me or cause heart failure. And i want to hear this from people who know what i am going through. I am quitting smoking but i know this will not resolve the problem. Thanks
