Thanks again everybody.  It means a lot.

Tracy, they aren't keeping him at the hospital.  We just have to keep going back every day to see the doctors and get tests ran.

     Prayers sent, for him and you and your wife and the rest of the family also.  Just throwing this out there, but have they checked his magnesium level, not just the blood level.  (His blood level could be fine, and he could still be deficient in it, as his body will leach it from his bones to keep a certain level up.) And his potassium levels?  If it is OK with his doctors, ask them if when he has his next case of tachycardia, (big word for rapid heart beat) if it would be OK to give him some magnesium supplements, and some potassium supplements also.  God bless, and I pray that all ends well with their search for the problem.

P.S.
     If you do not want to take supplements, Bananas are high in magnesium, and potassium also.

Your son has me and my wifes prayers. I hope all goes well.

 the upper part is pressed down,
 the lower part is raised up,
 the part that has too much is reduced,
 the part that has too little is increased."

Thanks Tracy.

Wayne I'm not sure what his Magnesium level is.  They have done a lot of blood work on him and just about everything came back normal.  We will ask about his levels when we see his doctor next week.  I'm really thinking it is an issue with his heart.  I think a heart monitor will be what it takes to get a final answer.  They can't get him in to see the Cardiologist until Wed.  Tomorrow he is having an echocardiogram.  He has been having spells all evening where it is just pounding away.  He is very lethargic.  Since we got home today I don't think he ever turned on his computer or his phone.  He worked on some homework and then went to bed early.

Thanks again everyone.

Docs are full of questions that is why they call it "Practicing" medicine.  I had kidney stones that caused my heart to race before - but in a healthy young person - i just don't know.  Will definitely pray for wisdom for the docs your son sees.

It is so tough when you have to be the strong one and you just ain't got nothing to fight with.
