Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Does An Adenosine Shot Cause Soreness In The Arms And Neck?
I had an SVT episode on Friday night. My HR was 244 Bpm for an hour. It was brought down by the injection Asenosine. I have an appt with a cardiologist on the 26th. My question is, is it common for your heart and neck and arm to be sore 5 days after this episode?
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Adenosine does not cause any soreness on arms and neck. It might be due to tight compression of blood pressure cough as it is kept quite long in cardiac patients. It will subside in couple of days and no need to worry much.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
