I'm 20 years old and I've been diagnosed with sinus tachycardia. I also have an overactive thyroid, and I've been told my heart's right ventricle is a little bigger than the left. Could all of this be a serious health risk?

Sinus tachycardia in the setting of an overactive thyroid can sometimes lead to complications, especially if left untreated. The enlarged right ventricle may be a result of the increased workload on the heart due to the tachycardia. It is important to manage both the thyroid condition and the tachycardia to prevent further complications. Medications such as Propranolol can be used to help control the heart rate and symptoms. Regular monitoring by a healthcare provider is essential to ensure proper management of your condition.
