I'm feeling a bit anxious because my heart rate has increased after I took pregabalin. Do you know how long this might last or what I should do next?

After taking pregabalin and experiencing an increased heart rate, it is important to monitor your symptoms closely. The increased heart rate can be a side effect of pregabalin. It is advisable to consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management. To address the increased heart rate, you can consider taking a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol. The recommended dosage for Metoprolol in this case would be 25-50mg orally once daily. This medication can help lower your heart rate and alleviate the symptoms you are experiencing. The duration of the increased heart rate effect can vary from person to person. It is recommended to continue monitoring your symptoms and consult your healthcare provider if the symptoms persist or worsen.

View allI'm really concerned about my recent hscrp test results, which came back at 45. Alongside that, my total cholesterol is 235. What should I be doing about this?
I recommend you start taking Atorvastatin 20mg once daily to help lower your cholesterol levels. Additionally, you can consider taking Aspirin 81mg daily to reduce inflammation. It's also important to follow a healthy diet low in saturated fats and sugars, and engage in regular exercise to improve your overall cardiovascular health."

Im a bit worried about my heart rate. Ive noticed that when I wake up or when Im sleeping, it's usually around 80 to 90 beats per minute. But once Im up and about during the day, it jumps to over 100 and sometimes even hits 120 beats per minute. Im curious about why this is happening and what I can do to manage it. Any advice on how to handle this situation?
It sounds like you may be experiencing episodes of tachycardia, which is a condition where your heart rate is consistently elevated. I recommend you to consult with a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment plan. To help manage your symptoms, you can try using a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol (25-50mg) once daily to help regulate your heart rate. Additionally, practicing stress-reducing techniques, maintaining a healthy diet, and staying hydrated can also help in managing your heart rate.
