Question
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.
