What Is The Treatment For Rapid Heart Beat , Tingling In The Face And Lightheaded?
I have been to the hospital 4 times since janurary due to erratic heartbeats, tingles in the face hands and feet, sweating on the palms and feet, lightheaded. I have had a EKG blood work a echo and everything came back fine. When i sit down or get up sometimes my heart feels to beat very heavy. everyone and all research i have done tells me its panic attacks but i am still worried it could be something more serious. Any suggestions?

Hi,
If your overall work up for SVT IS negative then it may be a panic reaction. But before labelling it panic, a full elaborated cardiac and noncardiac tests are must. First thyroid, anemia, pheochromocytoma, any drug or addiction.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Deepesh Agarwal
