Suggest Treatment For Tachycardia

I am a 23 year old girl who over the past few months has experienced bouts of increased heart rate. It will last anywhere between 3 days to a week and then will go away for weeks. The feeling is very uncomfortable, but I try to stay calm because it feels like I m short of breath and I don t want to make it worse. I feel like sometimes it even wakes me up because it feels like my heart rate has increased. I went for a regular checkup about two months ago and my heart rate was 103, but they didn t really do any further tests.
