I actually had a few bad episodes of PSVT and I had a lot of tests done and they could find nothing wrong with my heart. I even had a holster monitor for a month and all they found was that I was also getting about 800 PVCs a day. Of course I never had a SVT episode while hooked onto a machine. They assume that it was it is because how I described it is exactly the symptoms of a SVT but it is also the exact symptoms of panic attacks. I have had many panic attacks and an SVT rhythm feels a lot worse. Just the rhythm. It doesn't feel like your heart feels when you just ran, it feels like your heart is flipping. SVT can also be triggered by anxiety and stress, but only if you have the electrical imbalances that cause it. So I've been getting my anxiety under control to see if that helps my SVT. I get SVT maybe once every year or 2 years so it will be a while so see if my anxiety is causing my SVT.

Also, if your heart starts racing and then stops racing within a few seconds, it is probably PSVT. During my first episode it random went really fast and the school nurse was checking my pulse when it stopped. It went from 160 to 85 in less than 5 seconds

If your heart stops racing after you calm down and it gradually decreases the bpm, it is probably a panic attack.
