Suggest Treatment For Heart Palpitations
My resting pulse is presently 116& I can feel my heart pumping, should I be alarmed? I came out of hospital 7 days ago after 5 days of amonopheline infusion, my levels have just been done & are presently 6 but I feel generally fatigued & unwell! Is this normal?

Hi, thank you for posting.
I have gone through your query and I understand your concerns.
All of your symptoms indicate tachycardia. In the most common cases this condition is caused by Hyperthyroidism.
A disordered heart rhythm suggests Atrial fibrillation.
To confirm the diagnosis you need:
1. Electrocardiogram.
2. Complete blood count.
3. Electrolytes test.
4. Coronary angiogram.
5. Lipid test.
6. Glucose test.
Consult your cardiologist about the diagnosis and treatment.
All the best.
Dr. Behar.
