New to Heart Health Community - Seeking Feedback

Hi to all. I'm new to this and just feeling my way around. As for heart issues, I'm not sure if there's anything serious going on or if my anxiety is getting the best of me. Recently had a 72 hour Holter monitor and nothing significant was found. This after several episodes of tachycardia (up to 159 BPM, from 85 BPM, just by standing up). Anyway, hope to find some good feedback here.

I have the same!! I was told I had an episode of SVT (my heart rate went up to 270!) they did heart monitor for 30 days and an echo and said everything was fine! They saw a few pvc’s which are normal they said!

Wow, 270 is insanely high and that cannot be normal. Sometimes I think doctors are just afraid to say they don't know what's wrong and instead just shrug it off and dismiss you. That's insulting and frustrating.
