A member asked:
How can you tell the difference between inappropriate sinus tachycardia and anxiety?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tachycardia: Anxiety disorder is very common. Inappropriate sinus tachycardia is not. A physician can generally get a pretty good indication by a history and physical exam. Sometimes testing is appropriate.
