Yes, I have had an echo, ekg, stress test. My heart is structurally normal. I just have PVC's that wax and wane. Sometimes they lead to PAT. Strangely enough I had a short burst of svt last night. About 20 beats. This happens about 3 or 4 times a year. Most of the time the PAT is clocked at 220 and it starts up after a rather long pause. I really think it is something else too. I have felt this on and off for about three weeks now. Everytime it starts, I check my pulse and it is not skipping. I've been dealing with skips and tachy stuff for over 20 years so I really can tell when my heart is out of whack. Or usually....I does feel like a muscle spasm. The kind I get in my arms or legs every once in a while. I just don't usually get them in my chest. Just as long as I know that my pulse would be irregular too if it really was my heart, then I'm just going to try and not worry about it. I just wasn't sure if you can have a quivering heartbeat and a regular pulse. I guess that would be pretty difficult. No other symptoms with it either.

Have you had an echo, EKG? I'm not a doctor, but it sounds more muscular than cardiac. With a strong and regular pulse, I think you're looking at something other than cardiac stuff. Does OTC medication help?
