Ventricular Tachycardia is common in patients that have social/generalized anxiety disorder. Some patients may feel as if they just ran a one mile sprint when in a environment that initiates such symptoms. A heart rate around 132 is common among patients. However that is not the rate physicians like to see in their patients. I would recommend seeing your family physician and talk about possible medications that will help reduce and relax your body. Medications that are used for anxiety and tachycardia are ones like Propanol. Its important that you get this looked at as soon as possible. High heart rates can cause other issues. When thinking of the cardiovascular system (heart, arteries, veins) all is engaged in a increased stress from having a fast heart rate. I have seen some have severe Retina issues in the eye. When you have fast heart rate it makes vaso constriction in which the eye is made of many vessels. Once the vessels in the eyes become harmed it can cause issues to your retina such as White without pressure. White without pressure is a condition where lack of oxygen and chronic vaso contriction in the inner chambers of the eyes occur. White without pressure is thinning of the retina and makes a transparent scar tissue. After it is thinned it has a high risk of becoming detached. Detached retina can mean total blindness. These are just some simple complications that are made from having high heart rate
