When the cardiologist did every test possible, I hope he did a Thyroid function test also.(T3, T4,TSH), Hyperthyroidism is a common cause for tachycardia. So if it is not done do it immediately. Do you get this fast heart beats only during anxiety, stress, activity or any illness. Then it may be stress/anxiety related. Have you tried any anti-anxiety drugs. If not it may be tried with the advice of your doctor.
