ShouldBe okay: If you have supraventricular tachycardia, sometimes you can feel like your heart stopped for a moment. This is because after extra beats there is normally a little pause before the heart picks up again. This is common. The most important thing to be sure of is that your heart structure is normal. If you're SVT keeps reoccurring however, you should see a healthcare professional.
