Heart Stops Beating. Have High Blood Pressure And Tachycardia

I HAVE HAD A PALPITATION FOR MANY YEARS WITH NO SIDE EFFECTS HOWEVER 3 WEEKS AGO MY HEART STOPPED BEATING FOR ABOUT 7 TO 8 SECONDS. i STARTED TO BLACK OUT WHEN MY HEART HIT VERY HARD AND STARTING BEATING AT VERY HIGH RATE. THE DR SAYS I HAVE HIGH BLOOD PREESURE AND TACHYCARDIA. I BELIEVE THE HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE BUT MY HEART STOPPING IS ANOTHER PROBLEM. EVEN ON THE BETA BLOCKER IT STOPS. ANY HELP WOULD BE GREAT

Hi.. Heart stopping occurs if there is a conduction block or following a serious condition such as fibrillation.. Get an ECG to see what exactly may be the problem.. The treatment depends on the condition... Treatment would include medications or pacemaker placements... Consult a doctor, a cardiologist...
