HI
Well come to HCM
Underlying cause of tachycardia is matter here and for that you need to get done the EKG and ECHO study, without these difficult to say anything, if you are on "Digitalis" then it could be some rhythm disturbances may be due to some cardiac disease but you have not mentioned here for what condition you have been given "Digitalis" hope this information helps, take care.
