V-Tach

Had check-up yesterday and had some arrhythmias show up for the first time.I have been 100% pacer dependent for 24 yrs My last pacer change was 7/18/2012 a Medtronic Protecta XT CRT device. I had six episodes of VT lasting from .06 to.59 all at night. I can only recall feeling one episode at 5:22 am lasting 59 seconds. I have only started one new med Zoloft 25 mgm and this was after 2 episodes. I return Mon for repeat echo and appointment.
I suppose my question is: What's next??? There has been some stressful changes in my life this past year. Can stress cause this??

I Just had my pacer check today to and they noticed some episodes of v tech to but very small runs like .06 .35 somewhere in there I didn't feel any of them they asked me what I was doing on the days it happened I wasn't doing anything out of the norm they didn't seem to be to concerned the tech told me because I had asked about early beats I have been having those as well

I feel so blessed to have this little gem implanted in me. When I think of the alternative it is quite overwhelming sometimes.
