Rapid Heartbeat
I have a problem of rapid heartbeats for which I take concor 5 mg it usually stays 70-80 but when I get a rapid heartbeat episode it goes around 150-160 and whenever I went to ER the heart reduces to 120-130 they always say sinus tachycardia in my ECG. But recently a doctor said sinus tachycardia is only around 110-120 and HR of 150-160 may be PSVT. Can't a sinus tachycardia be around 150-160 and if this is PSVT whether is it life threatening?

Please do not analyse those beats. It is better to get a Holter done and being treated accordingly. Consult an Electrophysiologist
