COVID-19 | Keep an eye on heart rate variability as understanding virus continues

[@nicholelynnedwards5]

My 14yr old son now has an irregular heart rhythm, 4 weeks post covid. Very upsetting and scary. Have to recheck in 4 weeks. He also developed a really bad eye infection, ear infection and chest congestion and 100 fever. He only had a tickle in his throat and hardly a cough with covid 4 weeks ago. This was his 2nd time sick with covid. 1st time was end of 2020 into the start of 2021. Its breaking my heart and I am extremely concerned. It is beating 100 bpm while sitting down, 30 min after a walk. The rhythm is regular but irregular. Kind of like boom boom boom boomboom boom boom boom boomboom

How is your son now?

He has been ok, but he definitely had that blood under the skin (like a hickey on a neck) in between his eyes again one day last week. It lasted 2 days and disappeared. He is going for a doc visit for some tests next week. Nothing too concerning that we can see but we never know what is hiding within. I do not want to just assume all is ok and it not be. His heart beat is normal at his last doctor visit.

I had a fever on Day 1, rapid test negative. Treated myself to Tylenol/Advil and managed symptoms. Day 2 - fever continued but felt very tired, hadn’t taken Tylenol/Advil in 18+ hrs. Took 2 rapid test (nose+throat) and came back positive. Blood oxygen was >= 93%. Heart rate was fluctuating between 95 and 110 bpm, even higher when I got up for water (slight panic attack?). I took my therapeutic (Sanotize Enovid spray) and 50mg ZINC/Copper, Quercetin and NAC. Within 45 minutes of the Enovid+Zinc, my heart rate came down to 80-85 bpm steady. My fever broke that day - but I had a solid 2 weeks of lingering covid fatigue. The Sanotize Enovid spray flushed my upper respiratory. The zinc+magnesium bisglycinate calmed my heart. I wish I started my therapeutic on Day 1. I’m concerned about the heart rate thing. No wonder heart problems and myocarditis is happening. If all you have is Tylenol and Advil - take it. Managing the fever will help with the heart rate.

Will the parasympathetic or sympathetic increase or decrease in early stages of covid before the victim can sense they are sick?

Today im seek, i had headache and pain in the legs. At this moment im laying in the bed and i have open window because i have higher heart rate, 100-120. I had a feeling that i don't have enough oxygen in my blood. Its about 90 SpO2 with heart rate of 110 while im in the bed.

Could you find a solution for it? I have same problem at bed.

[@jamaustin2579]

Try some breathing exercises

[@rohanetrx09]

How are you now

[@DinoPasic]

@@rohanetrx09 Thanks for asking 🙂, im ok now. Everything is much better, and im going back to normal life again.

[@DinoPasic]

@@dariusbozorg1085 Well, not so easy but you need to listen to your body and do what is ok for you. Lack of oxygen is mostly problem with heart and lungs, or if you are are under pressure, stress then it reflects on phisical level. What you can do? Open the window at night, change your eating habits, eat more fruit and vegetables and avoid sugar, meet and white flour products, specially afternoon... It depends how this problem is created, so solution can you find by yourself easyer then someone else. Its not easy process, don't expect magical pill for this solution. I wish you all the best....

So I just got Covid and my heart before was in the mid 50s to low 60s not after Covid it a consistent 70

[@rambobrazy8411]

Takes about 6/7 months to get back to normal

[@RossNixon]

Rest for 3-6 months? Blow that, I'm running again after 20 days rest. Sure, I get some spikes in heart rate into the 180-192 range, but usually just in the first 2km of my runs. Doesn't feel dangerous.

[@RossNixon]

@Follower I'm not dead yet. Running every day and heart rate spikes are very rare now,

You will kill yourself like that real quick
