I think I remember my first event as being about age 12. I am now

57. Mine were brief tachacardia events. They happened after a sudden

excitement of some kind; maybe I suddenly took off running, or maybe

I just yelled. My heart would race at who knows how fast a rate. It

felt terrible - but, then it would stop within seconds, and off I

ran again. I never told my parents.

Hi Chuck,

Thanks for your feed-back,I too had many of those types of episodes

during, sudden excitement, fear or I guess from performance anxiety

in general. I thought it was normal and went on with it, though deep

down I kinda said, hmmmm, whats going on with me. It was scary, cuz

it held me back from 100% performance.
