A member asked:

Is it possible to still have a heart condition even though ekg and echo are normal? holter showed palpitations only and tachycardia. dr. not concerned

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes, but: It' s possible but unlikely. At your age, those tests are adequate to rule out the most likely heart issues.
