I don’t know how long you have has SVT but I’ve been with it pretty much my whole life. You absolutely CAN live with it! Some days are better than others, but it can be managed with medication (at least for me meds have helped so much)

Thank you so much! That give me some hope. The meds lower my BP so much that I’ve not been able to take them except flecanide. I’m terribly afraid of that one.

I’m not sure if you have tried it but I take Metoprolol Succinate. It lowers my BP too so I only take 12.5 or half a tab and it was literally life changing. I used to have episodes at least once a day and now they are seldom. It’s the palpitations that really get me now

I’ve been diagnosed for 8 years and chose to manage it without meditation. Was told once I started I couldn’t stop it so I said no thanks. Dr taught me how to manage it without meds so I’ve just been dealing with it the best I can and I have good days and not so good. But I’d rather be med free then dependent on big pharma for the rest of my life.

I had a couple cardiac ablations and I no longer have any problems. Maybe you can check and see if your cardiologist can do an ep study of the heart.
