What would cause a tachycardia first thing i the morning every morning?
SVT is a funny and unpredictable thing that occurs. There are many causes of SVT all of what you mentioned above does have the potential to cause it if your someone that is predisposed to it. The key thing is trying to get it treated so you have control of it hence where the verapamil comes in at. The action taken by doing what you do during a bowel movement is considered a vagal maneuver which can be used to help if your experiencing SVT. You don’t actually have to have a bowel movement just mimicking the actions will stimulate the vagus nerve to slowing your heart rate down. The most important thing to do is keep taking your meds and stay in contact with the cardiologist so that way they can tweak things if they’re not working like they should. I cut and pasted the causes from emedicinehealth to save time. Here’s a link to the website to learn more. http://www.emedicinehealth.com/supra
