Question

Can I still have a heart rate of 125 and it be normal? I just recovered from being ill for two months and I'm feeling really weak. Should I be concerned about this or is it just part of my recovery?

A heart rate of 125 beats per minute can be considered high, especially at rest. It is important to monitor your heart rate and if it persists at this level, you should consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can consider taking Metoprolol at a dosage of 25-100mg to help lower your heart rate. Additionally, make sure to rest, stay hydrated, and gradually increase your activity level as you continue to recover from your illness.

I recently got over Covid, testing negative on May 5th, 2021. Now, I've started experiencing some post-Covid symptoms like shortness of breath and a faster heartbeat.

I'm feeling a bit better now, but my doctor suggested I take some meds like Anleo DSR, Korandil 5, Montek AB, Vitoxy Plus, and Rozavel A for a month.
