Im really worried because I can feel my heart rate is really high and fast, even when I'm just resting. Its been at 94-95 bpm since this afternoon, and I'm not sure why. I have hypothyroidism and Im on 25 mcg of thyronorm. Could that be affecting my heart rate? I'm kinda scared. Any advice would really help.

Given the situation, it's essential to take precautions.

Consult a doctor immediately, as cat scratchesbites can transmit rabies and tetanus.

Even without visible wounds or symptoms, it's crucial to consider post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) for rabies.

Tetanus injection is recommended, especially since your last booster was in 2016.

Antirabies injection might be necessary, depending on the doctor's assessment.

Don't delay; seek attention within 24-48 hours.

I'm dealing with some issues related to pcos, like acne on my face, irregular periods, and hair growth on various parts of my body and face. I did an ultrasound, and it showed a cyst on my ovary. The doctor prescribed me some pills which worked when I took them, but once I stopped, all these problems came back. I'm wondering why this happens and what I can do about it? What other treatment options are there, or do I need to continue with the pills indefinitely?
