Specializes in Cardiac Electrophysiology

At your age there is: not too much to be concerned about but just the same, persistent tachycardia can lead to weakening of the heart muscle. In addition you would like to know the nature of your tachycardia and if additional medicine or a change in dose is indicated. Get yourself checked out by your health care provider to be certain.
