Dear sir

Tachycardia always poses risk for heart diseases and deart attacks, more the heart rate more the chances of atrial fluttermand fibrillations.

So maintain heart rate between 60 to 80 beats per min

Addition of statins and antiplatelet drugs will improvemthe condition but consult your doc

Thanks
