SVT: Not knowing what time you wrote this question I would probably take the metoprolol early and then if it doesn't work go to the ER. However, if you are having any pain or shortness of breath I would go right away. It probably would be a good thing at this point to see a cardiologist who does ablations to permanently fix your problem.
