User:Tachy~enwiki

Hi,

I am a 27 year old female with below-average health. I had my first tachycardia attack when I was 13. Doctors had no reasons for it and no medicines either as I was told I had a low blood pressure. Early morning walks, lots of fluid intake and good diet was recommended. After that I never saw a doc until recently when I got an EGC done which the docs said was normal. My first tachycardia happened due to overly laughing at school, the second time while I was changing my dress , later it occured with walking fast, dancing and even while I was excited or tensed like before meeting someone very important or acknowledging a fear, deceit or defeat.

My tachycardia results in very high & forceful beats with a very faint pain in the chest.The beats do not normalise or slow down unless I lie flat. And lying down so far is the only saving key everytime (- generally towards the left side.)

ALso, whenever I consume alcohol, the palpatations get very irregular. However, tachycardia as such has not happened in true sense ever on alcohol consumption. Oflate I have been consuming alcohol ( 2-3 drinks) regularly and the heart beats are constantly irregular and every now and then I get a feeling of missing a beat ! - I do not know how articulately I can explain this but that is really the feeling.

I want to know what are the effects of regular alcohol intake on a tachycardic patient like me.
