A member asked:
Can bloating cause non-sustained svt ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Haven't heard of it: Svt usually means supraventricular tachycardia. I have not heard of that being caused by bloating (presumably referring to excess gas in the stomach and/or intestines). There is another kind of svt, meaning superficial vein thrombosis. This second disorder seems more likely to occur in patients who have abdominal cancers, a pregnancy, a problem of immobility, etc...
