What Is The Treatment For Irregular Heart Beat?
Dear Sir,
I'm a 33 year old male.
Since last 2 days, I'm feeling some kind of spike in my heartbeat, once in 15 to 30 mins (sometimes in an hour gap) the beat goes very high, like as it will be when i run for 100 mts. Only one beat happens like that after it becomes normal. I have consulted with the general physician, he said it could be because of the gastric or acidity.
Please advise me

Hello dear, thanks for posting your query here.
You might be having what is called as paroxysmal tachycardia.
Most likely you seem to have paroxysmal supra ventricular tachycardia.
Please try to get your ECG done during tachycardia but if that is not possible due to the short lasting nature of your tachycardia, consult your doctor for a 24 hour Holter study as you are having very frequent episodes.
After identifying the exact cause for your symptoms, the best treatment can be offered to you.
I hope this would help you.
Thanks and all the best
