What is ventricular tachycardia? Ventricular tachycardia (VT or V-tach) is a type of abnormal heart rhythm, or arrhythmia. It occurs when the lower chamber of the heart beats too fast to pump well and the body doesn't receive enough oxygenated blood.
I had a flare up today - which lasted way longer than the recommended 30 seconds to seek help. I took my heart medication and I am ok as of now, resting in bed - but it really is not a fun experience. Contrary to what the internet says, it is possible to manage this illness with medication, which I am doing right now, and I hadn't had a flareup in years. I should of known this was coming as I had been sleeping a massive amount recently. I'm all wrapped up in my duvet, which is my safe place. I used to use a weighted blanked but I think it is too heavy these days, I feel claustrophobic.
