Question

I'm a bit worried because I've noticed that my resting heart rate is consistently between 90 and 100 beats per minute, even after starting a beta blocker. I'm taking Metocard XL 50 mg. Is this something I should be concerned about, or is there anything I should do differently?

Question

I'm experiencing a high heart rate at intervals. What could be causing this? I don't have any symptoms related to COVID.

Question

I'm a bit concerned about my cholesterol levels. My total cholesterol is 217, triglycerides are 163, HDL is 48, and LDL is 145. My weight is 85 kg and I'm 5'10". Do you think I should start medication for cholesterol, or would simply making some lifestyle changes be enough?

Question

I recently recovered from COVID and it's been about 20 days since my first symptoms with all my reports coming back negative. I'm only dealing with some post-COVID weakness now. I've noticed that when I'm resting, my heartbeat is typically between 60 and 80 bpm, and sitting it's around 75 to 90 bpm. But when I climb stairs, it jumps to about 145 to 150, and while walking, it's around 125 to 130. Is this normal after recovering from COVID because of the weakness I have? I had an ECG and a TMT last month as part of a regular check-up before COVID, and the TMT was normal even when my heartbeat reached 196. Everything was fine back then. Should I be concerned now?
