: You should call your cardiologist. There may be another etiology besides SVT that is causing your hear rate to increase. If it continues, you may need to be on a heart monitor to determine what the rhythm is when the rate goes up-is it SVT or some other rhythm? So, call your cardiologist to have a discussion about the next steps. Good luck!
