Quote, Summary, Source Analysis, and Citation #3

"To find your triggers, keep a diary of your heart rate and your symptoms."

I chose this quote because each person is different. The symptoms are all the same, but what brings on the symptoms and the attacks can differ depending on the person. For example, if someone that has SVT drinks a small amount of alcohol and is perfectly fine, that does not necessarily mean that someone else with SVT will be perfectly fine with drinking a small amount of alcohol. It is important to keep a diary or a journal to record your day to day routines, so that you can keep up with your symptoms, your heart rate, and your attacks. If you record your symptoms, your heart rate, and your attacks properly, you will know what your triggers are. Once you know what your triggers are, you can avoid them as much as possible. It is essential that a victim of Supraventricular Tachycardia keep a diary or journal; it will benefit them significantly.
