Not sure which is more comforting; Dr. Gupta's knowledge or scrolling through the comments and seeing that I'm not alone. This is such a reassuring and comforting community, I always walk away from these feeling much more at ease and empowered. Thank you doctor!

You are an angel for bringing so much peace and calm to so many anxious people. You are gifted in many ways including your intelligence but also your compassion for others. Many doctors don't have the time or patience to sit here and explain these things to patients in terms that we can understand. But you do. And for that, so many of us are indebted to you. Thanks for all you do.

My Zio founds 3 NSVTs over 2 weeks and I'm having a panic attack since finding out. Thank you Dr Gupta for helping me calm down.

This is a great topic - I have been “diagnosed” with NSVT - I have worn. monitors 6 times and each time I have had 3 to 7 beats of NSVT. I have felt it every time and indicated that with the button. THAT all said - never have I felt faint/dizzy or anything other than “oh…that felt weird” - I ride my bike (pedal bike) 100 to 140 miles a week. I am proof of what is said here. I did have tests to make sure this was not an indicator of heart disease as there is a ton of it on my dad’s side. But the great news is - no heart disease so this is just something I’ll have every once in a while and go on with a happy healthy life

I have never posted anything on KZread, but I really need to thank you for these videos. So thank you☺️☺️

I know this is an old post but this was exactly what I needed to hear! I have had runs of 3-7 beats of VT with bi-Gemini, and couplets, but mainly PVC after PVC. Normal heart and history. The anxiety has most certainly caused the episodes to get worse when started but this message has for certain helped to put my mind at ease. Thank you Doctor!

I was finally put on Flecanide 50mg twice a day. 90% reduction of Pre Ventricular Complexes. It has been life changing. I started it about two weeks ago and it has worked wonders for me. Most if not all of my anxiety is gone. I still have PVC burden but I can barely feel them. I definitely do not have the issues that plagued me for so long. After a stress test and echo I started Flecanide. With Metiprolol if things get out of control. Thankfully I have not needed anything but the Flecanide and my anxiety meds. I am so grateful for this medicine. In the future I may have an ablation done but for now the meds are working. I wish you the best of luck.

Thank you for your kindness & compassion for those you treat & the rest of us who are looking for help. 🙏🏻❤️

Beautifully explained. Thank you. You've helped my anxiety already!

This was extremely useful and reassuring. Just met with cardiologist today and reviewed my results. Heart monitor had more than one 3 NSVT examples over a week. Stress test and echocardiogram the week after the monitor both provided excellent results. No family history. No exercise induced blackouts. Never could tell i was having the palpitations. I feel so much better now. Thank you so much

This is a wonderful video and has relieved much anxiety. We can only wish all Doctors would take the time, and have the give a darn to explain things as you have here, reassuring the patient. It helps to know WHY we shouldn’t be overly concerned. When your MD just says “don’t worry, it’s benign,” that’s not all that helpful when you are the type who is proactive in your healthcare and want to understand what is occurring and why. I’ll sleep better tonight. Thank you again

Your videos have been very helpful. I have AVNRT F/S that goes on for days. It's just helpful to know that it isn't as dire as it feels. I've had cryo and rf ablation but the little area that locks the electrical loop into place grew back.

Thank you for this. I've been having palpitations for over a year now. My echocardiogram and holter monitor came back normal, but I still get isolated palpitations which really bother me. Today though I had what felt like a ventricular tachycardia which lasted about 4 beats and that really scared me. I feel a lot better about it now, so thanks again.

Thank you for these videos. I had a period of atrial fibrillation which lasted about 30 minutes and since then I've been so anxious. These videos are helping me so much.

I have learned a lot about the heart from you. thanks for all your videos.

Thank you for explaining everything in a way that we can understand and for putting my mind and anxiety to rest! You are amazing!

Thank you so much for your elaborate explanation. It is very comforting and helpful to hear and understand. While I haven't been diagnosed with this, I have times where I'm in a position sitting or laying where it seems my stomach or something else irritates my heart and it shoots out 3-6 fast beats. It doesn't happen too often but, I notice the flutter and feel my pulse and feel a few quick bounces. Thank you again!

This was very reassuring as my heart monitor results showed one episode of NSVT. They followed up with a CT scan of the heart but it showed no disease but I was still concerned. After your explanation I'm OK with it now.

You explain things very well. And I can tell you know what you're talking about young man. I'm not a doctor but I do know a bit about this.A lot of doctors never talk and say enough. Listening to you was a big relief in my mind and I'm sure a lot of others too.

Thank you for this video. I have had a year of PVC’s and recently (a week post partum) I experienced a run of 3 PVC’s which I was told was NSVT and I’ve been absolutely petrified since. My paternal uncle died of sudden cardiac death at 45 but otherwise no family history. I’ve had 2 normal echo’s except some trace/trivial regurgitation… I’m just petrified that I’m going to drop dead. These palpitations have well and truly taken over my life 😢 I feel every single palpitation too, I have no idea how to feel reassured, how to calm down or how to cope. It’s ruining my life

I would say if experiencing them, get an echo, get a holter monitor and see your burden. If clear you can do small things to help them, like supplements: coQ10, l-carnitine and magnesium taurate were really helpful for me. I also had blood tests at the GP, mainly your electrolytes, thyroid and full blood count will be looked at, but I specifically asked for them to check my ferritin which is when I found out I was iron deficient (which can cause palpitations too).

When ambulance arrived my heart went back to normal in a second with no treatment. I've had tests, and they revealed that my heart is, quote, "absolutely perfect".

Many thanks for your understandable information! Going for my first echo and stress tests this month. My bro died unexpectedly last year at 61 and we had similar lifestyles and nutrition. When the coroner looked at his heart, he had 3 types of heart issues that I didn't know about. So after getting a holter for two days, BT was 1. Missed by the PA but 2. Found by the chief of cardio. So he did a brief EKG in the office and looked at the old test, and said we needed to find the cause. At no time did he mention the nonsustained VT so I've been anxious for a month and a half waiting for these next appts. But your ten minutes did me much good service, so thank you! No longer nervous about these milestone appointments :) God bless you ❤

You had 18 different episodes of NSVT in a single day? 🤔.... how long did they last per episode.

Wow good video. Very clearly explained. Thank you. I am 56 and had a quadruple bypass 3 years ago. I recently was diagnosed with VT during stress test (160HR) but they didn't keep me on the treadmill for more than a few seconds after seeing VT. I have never had any symptoms and exercise regularly and play tennis. I then had Angiogram, Echo test, EPS (Electrical) and MRI of the heart - all of which were clear. Next step is to repeat Stress test whilst on Beta Blocker.... but from watching your video I am hoping for NSVT.

Thank you so much for all this great information and I especially enjoyed your video about things that cause irregular beats . You are such a kind teacher. I am a nurse but you have taught me so many things that I have never heard before. So helpful.

Thank you for so much clarity on NSVT. I had my first SVT episode Oct of last year (240bpm). 8 weeks later it happened again and I opted for ablation (SVT free since Jan of this year). roughly 4 weeks ago I started experiencing clusters of palpitations almost ongoing for a week before landing in hospital where they found nothing. I contacted my Electrophysiologist and was fitted with the Zio Patch, I was only able to wear it for 4 days due to an allergic reaction to the adhesive. At my follow up appointment, my nurse took some extra time to show me the VT on my read out. She explained that it was a whole different monster. But when my cardiologist came in he had no concerns about the VT on my print out and said that I was having normal PACs and PVCs. Although he was very reassuring, I was still left confused as to why the nurse made a point to tell me about the VT and dangers of it. It almost made me think she was trying to tell me something she knew he wouldn't. I've been having back to back panic attacks and fear of being alone due to the PACs and PVCs scaring me half to death. This video has helped me very much in understanding that I'm likely ok and need to let go a bit. I do have one question however, can I expect this to get worse with age? Thank you so much for your time and sharing all of these hopeful and helpful videos!

Thank you so much for all that you do. You are soooo knowledgeable AND comforting. I am a 50 yr old female and recently wore a 2 wk zio heart monitor for palpitations. They called saying that in 2 wks it showed 3 runs of SVT with the worst being a 6 beat run that went up to 191 HR and told me that I could go on metoprolol if I wanted to maybe lessen palps or make them to where I might not feel them. I do have family hx, but not of sudden cardiac death of someone 40 or under. My dad had a heart attack at age 46 and passed away of a 2nd one at age 57. My anxiety about my heart is CONSTANT, especially now that I am having palpitations and ESPECIALLY NOW after hearing that I had 3 runs of SVT (they didn’t specify if NSVT but I guess so since it only got up to 6 beats). I will be having an echo and a coronary calcium score on Jan 10th. If the calcium score shows significant build up he said he’lll want me to do a stress test. I think I want to ask for a stress test anyway, regardless of the scoring results. Thank you again. I have watched so many of your videos and you calm me down and help me to think rationally again.

This is very helpful and your explanation is clear for a non-medical person. I enjoy you and thank you for sharing your knowledge.

Dr Gupta Thank you for that. it was a very informative video. it was very reassuring when you said it is impossible to know if a run is coming from the atria or ventricles without an ecg. I get a run of something, usually 5,6 or 7 beats. I have none of the risk factors which you alluded to, I have a normal echo etc. so I feel a bit more reassured now, Thank you once again.

They kept telling me nothing was wrong even after 3 ER visits until it happened on stress test. My cardiologist said "wow, I didn't see that coming". He gave me beta blockers that did not help in fact made it worse. Couldn't take a shower as raising my hands over my heard sent my heart on the war path. I now take Hawthorneberry Tincture at a fairly low dose and it has helped me tremendously no episodes in 3 months. I haven't tried any cardio but am doing yoga with no issues to date. My electrocardiologist was not enthusiastic about me having an ablation although he said he would but instead said "well it could heal". Have you ever heard of it healing? Also said that NSVT can come in cycles? Getting a loop monitor at the suggestion of my cardiologist. He said NSVT is not life threatening but we need to really see what's going on.

Hi. This is my experience: I am 50, overweight, but eat well with many veggies and fruits. I am under high stress because of a long-time disease of a family member. No risk factors as in the video. Former smoker. No alcohol. No drugs except for some nail topical cream. I had two medical grade Holter devices (12 and 5 lead) within 24 and 48 hours. Echo of the heart and carotid, blood tests, many X-rays of the heart, and quite a few cardiologist visits. The results are: good heart, grade 1 hypertension, some bradycardia at rest (55 beats per minute) all was fine. Good heart. I have about 5 NSVT episodes per week, mostly when I am bloated and hunched over on a chair. Never when making an effort. I also had some PAC and PVC, single and sometimes in couplets. The NSVT beats are 3 beats in a row and only one time it was 5 beats in a row. They appear on medical Holter as on my 1 lead wearable Holter. I also feel when I have an NSVT episode it feels like a rattle in my lower chest near the stomach. My doctors say I am fine just need to lose weight and exercise more. I am always concerned about how my heart works. I love your videos, Mr. Gupta. I am also thinking of Heliobacter Pylori and some other gastric causes because they look related.

I'm not really worried about my heart just really interested in the fascinating organ especially it's electrical system! I can't wait to get a used patient monitor and see my own ECG!

Thank you so much sir

I had an episode of 12 pvcs in a row during my 48h holter monitor, hence, NSVT. I didnt feel these and I was sleeping when it happened. However, that caused me huge anxiety since I read that more than 3 in a row can be more dangerous. Now I suffer from anxiety and insomnia because of that and every night my anxiety causes me pvcs, fainting feelings and chest pain which again trigger panic attacks... My cardiologist didnt really tell much since my echo was normal which just left me with more "???". Now I am here....

It is reassuring because I suspect I may have non sustained ventricular tachycardia there are times during or after exercise that I experience some dizziness followed by a brief tachycardia of anywhere from 160 to 215 beats per minute and I do get PVCs some times two in one minute but my heart is structurally normal

I knew it: of course iron affects electrical conductance of the heart. It's iron after all. Iron Overload Decreases CaV1.3-Dependent L-Type Ca2+ Currents Leading to Bradycardia, Altered Electrical Conduction, and Atrial Fibrillation, 2011 So this is my theory: I have this mode where the atrium acts as a little turbo on top of the ventricular contraction, not instead of. This requires good coordination of the two pulses. If there was too much iron, it would mess it up and combine the two, ie atrial fib. But since I've been iron chelating for a while, I don't have that problem. This has to be the design of the mode where the atrium is pulsing at high frequency. Not afib. It increases blood flow and feels great. It only lasts for a minute cause contrary to the ventricle, the atrium is a much smaller muscle and gets tired. But it's good for little spurts. Anyhow that's my working theory and why cardiologists have apparently never seen this, cause almost everyone has too much iron which has been my contention. Anyhow of course evolutionarily the heart carried on and afib is not a serious condition. But I think if you have afib you have waaaay too much iron 3:20 VT is a very regular pumping action. It can be reduced blood flow, but in a stable manner. So it can make you tired, but it's not going to progressively get worse, it really cannot given the fixed heart rate. The heart always gets the oxygen. Only if you have cvd, ie clogged coronary arteries, could vt be a prelude. The 4% of normal people having exercise induced nsvt but not higher mortality, the key there is, the paper says this after adjustment for risk factors. So exercise induced means you may have risk factors, eg cvd, but you can check for those.

Thank you very much for this video! It's very informative! :) I am still wondering how high the risk is to get from a NSVT to a SVT? Are there any numbers on the risk available?

I seem to be having tachycardia that I notice on the regular now before I go to sleep. It used to be the thuds and feeling like my heart was going to jump out of my chest; by comparison, the tachycardia is way easier to miss. Wore the holter monitor two weeks ago for 48 hours; up to that point, I'd noticed no tachycardia. First time I did notice it was the night before I got the report. (So, the report did NOT give me the idea, make me start looking for it.) Monitor said 17 episodes of either VT or SVT, none longer than ten seconds, no more than 7 beats, HR 140 at max. But the last two nights, I've counted several multiples of 10 at once. (Counted 80 total the first night.) If I wasn't being quiet, I wouldn't notice them, and as they stop abruptly and my heart goes back to whatever "normal" is, I'm not worried. Non-cardiologist doctor said my 29% PVC burden was of no concern, so...I guess it's no concern. I am getting older, (63, have been a runner, can't run any more (brutal osteoporosis, fractured T8 on a run,) but still try to get a brisk as possible walk in with weighted vest and trekking poles, so I think my heart is still in decent condition,) maybe this is just what old hearts do? But, you can kind of understand why a person might feel concerned. Getting old isn't for sissies.

Interesting.....for sure, not sure I understand it that much....but think some is sinking in.....

But what Causes Nsvt in a normal healthy heart? I'm scared because I got one that lasted for 1 second 40 minutes after exercising. Please help. I felt a teenie bit like a head rush when it happened. 🙏😞

Can nsvt feel like a run of 3-5 fsster beats followed by a pause then return to normal? I've had this happen then return to normal for a few seconds then do it again, then return to normal then do it again. Very scary.

Same here , I wore a monitor for 2 weeks showed over 300 short runs of Atrial Tachycardia like 10-15 seconds at a time but ALOT of them. I feel every time to . Everyday All throughout the day 😢 but my cardiologist still tells me not to worry . Does yours do it everyday

I have so much anxiety since a 3 beat run of nsvt was found on my zio report. I felt better after watching this video but then I went to TikTok and saw horror stories, like how people have to get defibrillators implanted and how nsvt can become unstable very quickly

This makes me feel a bit better about my dad’s potential condition.

I was wearing a Zio patch when I went into a nine-run of VT. I felt like I was dying terrible chest pain I could not breathe and my body started shaking and jurking almost passed out went to my knees..scarrest thing of my life I called 911.. they kept me in the hospital for two days.. had another run-in of it in the hospital..scares me because I have CAD and 15 stents in my ❤️ and have 2 blockages right now that they say they can't fix..I got a new cardiologist hopefully you can help me out.. that nine run of v-tach was the scariest thing I've ever had scarier than my heart attack. I pray I never get it again.i have PVCs and supraventricular tachycardia also.

So if a young person is otherwise healthy and just having a 3-4 beat run of pvcs you wouldn't treat them or even run more tests? That's really reassuring. I've been having one or two 3-4 beat runs of pvcs almost every day and can't help but be worried about it. Single beat pvcs are one thing to deal with but the short runs of them are scary.

My life spoiled because of ektopic beats and anxity this fools docters in India give me a lot of medicines but after seeing your veedio my ectopic beats not affected me now now days one or two ectopic beats a day or while doing hard HIIT training like mountain running i dont care it now days and iam not panik about that thank yo docter

Good video thankyou

three skipped heart beats in a row are extra beats so 3 extra heart beats plus ur heart rate how can it be over 120 heart beats a min? reg heart rate 70 plus 3 extra heart beats total of 73 beats per min where does over 120 hbpm come from? i dont under stand

Just had Sinus tachycardia with sinus arrhythmia, RBBB, and inferior ST-T abnormality nonspecific. Lasted 10 minutes. Haven't seen cardiologist yet.

Sinus arrythmia is a normal occurrence in health individuals, it's just means your heart rate increases with an in breath and decreases when you breathe out. Sounds like a normal trace.

What's the difference from that and normal pvcs

Firstly thank you for such kind and useful videos. I am sharing. One question what is atrial tachycardia and how is it different from ventricular tachycardia

I was just diagnosed with nonsustained SVT and my Doctor prescribed metatropol 25mg with a followup in 3 months. My echocardiogram came back 65% which they said was normal and my Holter monitor showed infrequent SVT with an extra 6 beats. I wore the monitor for 48 hrs. My question is, if I'm not feeling any palpations why am I on a beta blocker? Is it necessary? I have a history of anxiety so I'm wondering if that's the reason behind this treatment.

Hello Doctor, for a few years now i have been having issues with my heart beat. It can go from 0 to 100mph for no reason. And the. Just beat normal with in a split second. This hasnt been picked up at all on any device used as its never happened with in the tests times. I get told its my anxiety but i k ow my own body and this isn't anxiety. My symptoms happen which then spark anxiety its hard to get some one to listen. Which advice could you give me please

Hey world! Thought I’d share w everyone, I had a holter monitor on for 3 days, and I’m supposed to tap a button whenever I felt something was off, in the span of 3 days I clicked it 39 times and throughout the 3 days my doctor and examiners seen 1 NVST, they’re recommending me to a cardiologist this Friday, I highly recommend to not worry about it, don’t overthink anything, it will just make the impending doom worse ❤

My cardiologist won't listen to me that my dad dropped dead at 31. Im having non sustained vtach at night and I occasionally have extremely fast on occasions. (Sustained?) Why aren't these drs listening to me!!!!???? I'm scared!

How do you know you are having NSVT at night?

Sir will email you soon. Might need an appointment. Mine is exersize induced but at age 62 I over do it 2hrs a day. But not since May this started. Just completed 3rd ablation. The last ablation was because exercise was causing AFIB, sporadic heart rate or tachycardia. Now no AFIB. Thanks for your information

Could you clarify - do both consecutive ectopics and tachycardia (less than 30 seconds) have to exist for the event to be considered NSVT? In other words, I have runs (consecutive ectopic) a few times a month, but my heart rate doesn't escalate, certainly not above 120.

Has to be 3 ventricular ectopic beats in a row, those 3 beats have to be at 120 beats per minute. That’s the minimum requirement for classifying NSVT. If those 2 things don’t happen, it’s not NSVT, it’s just PVCs, almost everyone throws off some PVCs from time to time. It’s only when you’re having say 20,000 or 30,000 per day, that would cause any concern. Although they are very scary, I have ectopics, I also have a horrible anxiety issue. It’s a vicious cycle.

@@borgir8889 how they determined I had that is by doing an ekg. I complaint about lots of "palpitations/skip beat" feeling. They said it was a PVC that caused it and I guess by whatever area of the heart it came from they said it was the lower part and idk, guess they put two and two together. Not sure. To me personally feels like my heart is skipping beats or palpitations. Like flutters. It's random. But I do have "episodes" in which case I get really sick. I get palpitations, dizziness, could faint, fatigue, shortness of breath, super high blood pressure and randomly goes very low. I shake, sweat, I'm nauseous, sometimes vomit..that I can remember that's what I feel

@@borgir8889 oh no. You should always get checked out. Whenever you feel something is not right. You know your body more than anyone. Also, if you don't have the ability to see a doc. You could possibly (if you are able) get the Kardia mobile. It's a portable ekg. You can record it when it's happening. Records for 60 seconds at a time. You could send the recording to your doctor via email. Or you could pay the app's doctor to review your ekg. They will be able to detect anomalies. Confirm or deny any diagnosis. Just an option. Of course I would recommend for you to call your doctor as soon as you feel off. Even go to the ER if you can. But always talk to ur doctor before doing anything. The Kardia app has truly helped me many times. Don't hesitate to ask me any questions. I'm no doctor and don't give medical advice I am just a patient trying to help out
