"The treatment was first class and so quick"

I had a sudden onset of tachycardia, to the point I couldn't measure it myself. I had central chest pressure and was worried something serious was happening. I was taken to A&E and triaged very quickly and with a HR of around 190, I was transferred onto a trolley and taken straight to Resus where they diagnosed SVT. I'd had quite a lot of recent emotional stress, which they think contributed to my condition. Having tried blowing into a syringe a couple of times to slow my heart down, I was then given a drug to correct it. It was the most awful feeling once it started to work, but it had explained to me very clearly that this feeling would be short lived. It was and my heart reverted to a normal rhythm.

I can't praise the Staff highly enough from Admission, to Triage, to Resus. The treatment was first class and so quick. I'd especially like to highlight the care I received from the 2 Nurses, Louise and Katie in Resus. You kept a very worried patient, informed and calm. Thank you also to everyone else involved, I can't remember all the names, but your care was very much appreciated.
