Any update pls

Any update from you sir?

That is crazy, same thing thats happening to me. The highest heart rate was 160 from just walking 4 min. And on stress test my hear rate went up to 183 and stopped at 6:30 minutes in to it. Ecg, echo and blood work normal. If i walk to the toilet HR shoots up to 130. Went to see psychologist and she flat out said "she doesn't believe it anxity". Cardiologist and doc seem to dismiss me at this point.

could be pots

Hi, am a student nurse in Nigeria, currently studying Nursing, but i want to continue my nursing program in Australia. Is that possible?, and how do i go about it

Have you been jabbed.?

Got this after the covid vaccination

I am freshly diagnosed with IST. Similar symptoms as well. I'm actually following up with a cardiologist as I type this.

What is the underlying cause of your IST ?

"promo sm"

I am Brazilian and have for years the same symptoms. I'm so tired of doctors sending me to psychiatrists, even though I've had 5 heart attack principle because of the speed that reaches my heart. All electrocardiograms indicate sinus tachycardia, but no doctor can figure out what starts this tachycardia. So, even though I'm tired, I'll go back to the doctors and ask about the possibility of Inappropriate Sinus Tachycardia. Thank you so much for this video!

going through very similar stuff, but I'm elderly. Have been hospitalized and tested for all kinds of stuff, got same diagnosis sinus tachycardia, BP goes from very low to very high. since looking online for information there are a lot of people having vertigo - dizzy spells and no one has gotten help that I've spoken to. No one. Syncope comes on fest, drop to floor or ground, back to normal within 6 minutes. Bizarre. Good luck to you, great presentation.

Anyone with these symptoms and any other chronic symptoms- physical or mental please please look up the medical medium. You will find all of the answers to everything and how to fully heal. Hundreds of thousands of people have healed.

I'm suffering from the same problem, off work, can't even walk. Hope yours is resolved and would love to listen to your recovery experience and apply the same.

I just came out of hospital today for this exact thing. Been dealing with for months since I have had COVID Diagnosis: inappropriate sinus tachycardia. Put on metoprolol 50 mg twice daily. And referred to specialty hospital. Gonna be a slow long road. I’m 53 years old. I may have to ask about the med that you are on. Can’t get into specialty hospital until mid June though. I feel for you so much.

Hey Chris. I was given a prescription for ivabradine yesterday for IST. I'm from the Gold Coast by the way. Thanks for making this video. I didn't think I'd find a video like this as apparently ivabradine is mainly prescribed for pots and heart failure. My cardiologist told me she got IST herself from covid and they have seen a number of cases where that has happened. Do you think your IST could have been related to covid or the vaccine. A friend of mine got IST from the vaccine. I'm doing some more research on ivabradine before deciding if I'll start

What did the doctor say? Will it get better or does this stick?

Thankfully I had an aggressive female cardiologist that once nothing was seen on an ekg, she slapped a 2 week holter monitor on me. Diagnosed right away with IST. My heart while asleep would go to 140 to 160. I woke wake up petrified. My iron was incredibly low as well, after 2 infusions of iron things slowed down a bit. I have metroprolol but i only take it on an as needed basis as I wanted my heart to try to regulate itself. I rarely take it. Now that I have been exercising more I notice its gets higher again so I have to figure that part of it out. I wonder the etiology of this. Damage? Infection perhaps? I also had vertigo and am sensitive to caffeine so I avoid it. It's annoying and I hope one day it heals for us all

Does it go away? I have a normal resting heart of 70 to 80 but 3 4 times a week my heart rate shoots up to 125 130 doing nothing. Doctor has said most likely ist after all tests are negative. Iv decided to try and handle the symptoms on my own. Does it worse?

Are you doing ok? Thank you for this video. Big help!

U still alive bro?

Anyone have feeling heart stops then pumps then stops. Only for sec or skips beat. Had for years

I am 18 and I have this problem IST, I have been dealing with it for over 10 months. Sometimes it feels like your heart is stoping for 1 second along breathing out like a gap in heart rate and starts again .it's really hard to live with it. No one seems to know about it, I have had all tests from CBC to ECG, all normal just with high rate like 120bpm. I think we have to live with it.

Why did you stop Ivabradine?!

Wondering how your doing. I'm going through the same. I got it all from covid.

I was just diagnosed with this and the propranolol makes me feel super crappy too. I need to ask about the other medication and the sinus node sparing hybrid ablation. They put me on 20 mg three times a day but I feel like that is way too much and why I feel so bad now even when the HR is under control. Prior to medication resting HR around 100, always around 120 walking and could randomly hit 160s-180s even while lying in bed falling asleep, which then became impossible until it calmed back down. In the hospital nurses found it in the 140s while I was sound asleep. It’s been pretty rough. I hope to manage it better soon now that it’s diagnosed. It took three hospital visits including 2 admissions before they got an electrophysiologist involved to finally get the answer. Advice I found is more hydration, higher sodium, compression socks and smaller, more frequent meals. Anyone have any other tips?

Hey Chris, do you have Instagram?

Long covid

Hey! How are you doing now? I am also dealing with IST since two years

All. Please read Brain Saver by Anthony William chapter 38, page 384 on POTS. Then try a few of the autoimmune disorders therapies/supplements in his other book Brain Saver Protocols. Honoring the light in you with the light in me.

I know how you are feeling baby,I've been suffering with exact same symptoms and I was told that it's also sinus tatrachardia in example! It can be or is absolutely horrifying and no doctor can diagnose it or even give a medication or medicine for the symptoms or condition. And no one can give any informative info on it either nor is it in any trials or research,at least not that I know of. It seems to effect me 24/7 365. I'm on Propranolol for it but it doesn't help and it's not even effective,it's just like a placebo medication in a way. I know what you are experiencing,it's speechless and it is horrifying and extremely debilitating . Oh,by the way,your an absolute beauty,would love to fuck you, your a turn on for me,love all about you baby 💕 x x. . Quack,Quack

How is ur pots

How r u

Chris, are you still on the medication for IST or any new development? Have you cured and came out of it?

Does ivabradine help lower Heart rate Better than beta blockers I was put on metroplolol and and bunch of other beta blockers all gives me terrible insomnia and btw did you get a week of holtor monitor test because I also live in Australia they only have one night of holtor monitor I’m asking around all medical centres none of them have holtor monitor test more than 24 hours

If you ever feel like making an update video I'd like to see it! Otherwise, I hope you are doing better.

Thank you for this video. I have had something wrong with me for 14 years and it was dismissed as mental health even though it took me a long time to start believing maybe they were right. That's when I gave up and just believed it was all in my head. Looking back over my Fitbit heart graphs made me realise something was really wrong and my symptoms are not in my head. Thankfully, a new younger dr started at the surgery and I was able to see him and show him my graphs and he took me seriously. I now have an urgent referral to see a cardiologist which I think is sadly funny because it was never urgent before. I am so mad to have been gaslit all these years and I eventually just started to believe that it must be in my head because no one would believe me. This video was really helpful. I wish more people talked about this condition on CZcams. It's one that my dr said I could have. I may also have POTS. I just don't want to suffer anymore with all of this. I need answers and I want all those years back :(

Are you taking ivabradine or propranolol now? Does propranolol help your standing heart rate?

Hi Chris I'm on propanalol also 30mg a day of not I will a So get fast heartbeats and ectopic beats that's all I take. Ain't heard from are you OK and Yr heart

Omg! Thanks for making this video, I have been waiting for tests results for similar cardiac issues and this warms my heart (Pun intended). I can’t wait to get back to the gym ps definitely make something for IBS I have that as well as cardiac issues 😢

The thing with the hr being high it at times elevates your b/p. But then the medication beta blockers can drop your b/p too low. I just can’t wait to be better. How are you doing now?

I’ve been going through this for the past month every test comes back normal. Now I’m waiting on my Holter monitor results but they do think its IST. I’ve passed out briefly twice. It’s very scary not to be able to take a walk and do normal every things. Right now I take propranolol 5mg 3 times a day. I pray that I can get back to being active again. I am grateful that my heart is technically “normal” but it’s frustrating. I was sick a week prior to all of this and got better a few days prior. Praying for all of you

Finally, I have a diagnosis.. But I have weird flip flops with my heart. Very very scary and so many symptoms

Why it's happening what's the cause ??

I’m 32 and mine started in Dec 2019, I was pregnant and got a virus and then everything just went downhill. I’ve been on Propranolol for almost a year but it’s not helping a ton. I’m the same just a light walk not fast at all will make my heart rate jump to 120-140. I also get pretty dizzy, light headed and I hardly go out and do anything anymore.

You sound like you have hyper pots x

I have this for 15 months. It has been so hard and challenging. I've had to fight for help they keep telling me go look after your physical aspect of your high heart rate so I got a second opinion and they sent me to London for more autonomic testing. They keep saying the importance of exercise bit its hard . Hope you find a way too live better . I definitely hate the vertigo x

Have you tried a whole food plant based diet Or Irish sea moss?

This happened to me after I donated blood.

I have been having issues with the heart rate as well. Two times I went to ER and was given Adenosine to ‘restart’ the heart rate. Very scary. Cardiologist said it was PSVT. I have been on verapamil for the past 9 months. Mine started a few months after second dose of COVID vaccine. Three weeks after my third vaccine, I was in the ER again. Not sure whether it’s related to vaccine or not 🙁
