I'm a bit worried because even after testing negative for COVID, my pulse rate is still high, around 103-104. Yesterday, I started feeling some pain in my left arm, so I got an ECG done. It showed something called sinus tachycardia, which I guess isn't normal. My blood pressure is 14090, and I've started taking Ecospirin 75mg. Is this something I should be concerned about?

After recovering from COVID-19, experiencing a continuous elevated pulse rate (sinus tachycardia) and pain in your left arm warrants attention. An abnormal ECG and a BP reading of 14090 mmHg suggest that further evaluation is necessary. Sinus tachycardia can be caused by various factors, including lingering effects of the virus, dehydration, stress, or other underlying conditions. Ecospirin (aspirin) 75 mg can help reduce the risk of clotting, but it's crucial to follow up with your healthcare provider to identify the cause of your symptoms and ensure appropriate management. Additional tests such as blood work, echocardiogram, or a Holter monitor might be needed. Please consult your healthcare provider promptly for a comprehensive evaluation.

View allCan we avoid going through angioplasty even though there are two clots in the heart? The patient seems fine, so I'm wondering if we could just start rehab without surgery.
Angioplasty may be necessary to treat the clotting in the heart to prevent any potential complications. However, if the patient is stable and asymptomatic, a conservative approach can be considered. It is important to closely monitor the patient's condition and follow a strict medication regimen. Rehabilitation can be started under the supervision of a healthcare provider. Medications such as antiplatelets (e.g. Clopidogrel) and anticoagulants (e.g. Warfarin) may be prescribed to manage the clotting. Regular follow-up with a cardiologist is essential to assess the need for any further interventions.
