Need Medication For Tachycardia

I was just told that my stomach is not emptying right and it has caused me to be very nauseated and vomit constantly. I have lost 50 pounds in about 7and 1/2 weeks. I was also told that the two drugs that are used for this condition are dangerous for me to use. One I am algeric to and the other could kill because I have tachycardia really bad. I don t know what to do. There is a doctor that puts pacemakers in the stomach. What are your thoughts?

Hi Welcome to HCM.
I understand your query and concern.
Tachycardia in your case could be related to stress and anxiety.Irregular heartbeat is known to alter the blood supply to the brain leading to impaired function in a transient way.Few drugs like beta blockers are certainly known to reduce the heart rate.I advise you to have a complete 24 hour holter ECG which can accurately determine the cardiac conduction abnormalities. Monitor your blood pressure and heart rate.Drugs like amiodarone can also help to minimise the rhythm irregularities.A 2 Dimensional echocardiography will help to assess the functional reserve of the heart ruling out organic heart lesions.Electrophysiological study and Radiofrequency ablation will be helpful once any abnormality detected.Meditation and yoga will be helpful.
Consult your cardiologist for expert management.
