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

High heart rate in periodic breaks can be due to various reasons such as stress, anxiety, dehydration, caffeine intake, or underlying heart conditions. It is important to monitor your symptoms and consult with a healthcare professional for proper evaluation. In the meantime, you can try taking a beta-blocker like Metoprolol (25mg) to help regulate your heart rate.

I've been feeling this annoying itchy sensation at the bottom of my heart, kind of towards the back, and it's been bugging me. I'm also always hungry and feeling this slight heartburn, which just adds to the discomfort. It's weird because I can't seem to breathe as deeply as I usually do. Could this be something serious?

I'm a bit worried because I've been checking my blood pressure at home for the last couple of days, and its been around 13585. Its usually about 12075 with the Telma 40 I'm taking, which I started after having COVID. I also had my wisdom tooth taken out a couple of days ago. Is this spike in my blood pressure something I should be concerned about?

It is normal for blood pressure to fluctuate, especially after a dental procedure like wisdom tooth extraction. However, since your blood pressure readings have been consistently higher for the past two days, it is important to monitor it closely. In this situation, it would be advisable to consult your doctor to discuss the possibility of adjusting your medication dosage or considering additional treatment options. In the meantime, you can also try to reduce stress, maintain a healthy diet low in sodium, and engage in regular physical activity to help manage your blood pressure.
