Am 19. experience palpitations, sometimes feel singular, sometimes multiple. no other symptoms. lasts maximum few seconds. how likely to be vt?

Unlikely: however, you need a monitor to determine the reason for your symptoms. Your doctor will prescribe a specific one based on the frequency of your symptoms. One common reason for the symptoms you describe is premature ventricular contractions.

Vt: VT most commonly seen with ischemic heart ds and cardiomyopathy .There are other forms of VT seen with preserved LV function as well. The best way to diagnose palpitations is to record them when you are having symptoms
