I've just gotten over COVID, and I've noticed some changes in my heart rate. When I'm at rest, it's okay around 70-95, but when I climb stairs, it spikes to between 160-165. Even when I'm just walking at a pace of 5 kmh, it's around 130-140. Is this normal post-COVID, or should I be concerned?

I'm having trouble sleeping for the past few days. I keep waking up in the middle of the night because I can feel my abdomen pulsating and my heart racing. It's making me really anxious.

I took a taxim o tablet for this swollen lump on my forearm because my doctor suggested it. But as soon as I took it, my heart started racing, and my heart rate shot up to around 120. I'm feeling chest pressure from all this bloating. Why is this happening? I got scared and stopped taking it. What should I do now?

It's possible that you experienced an adverse reaction to Taxim O (cefixime), which is an antibiotic. While antibiotics like cefixime are generally safe, they can occasionally cause side effects in some individuals. The racing heart rate (tachycardia) and chest pressure you experienced may be related to an allergic reaction, anxiety, or even a gastrointestinal side effect such as bloating. It is crucial to report these symptoms to your healthcare provider immediately, as they may need to prescribe an alternative treatment for your swollen lump and address your current symptoms. In the meantime, avoid taking any more of the medication and seek medical attention to ensure your symptoms are properly managed.
