A member asked:
Can you die from your heart beating fast with no heart disease?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes but: You can die from a fast heart rate with no recognized heart disease. Some forms of heart disease (eg wpw, lqts, hocm, others) have no symptoms until the fast hr occurs and may occur at a rate that is lethal.
