: A heart rate of 140 wouldn't be simple sinus tachycardia. How long did it last? What's your usual heart rate? I suspect you had a bout of paroxsysmal supraventricular tachycardia of one type or other. MVP predisposes you. I'm unsure why you're taking Corlanor which is used to treat congestive heart failure. Do you have a cardiomyopathy? Your cardiologist with all info is best to advise you thoug
