Hi
Thank you for trusting HCM
I read your query and understand your concern
It seems you are suffering from sinusal takikardia
In most cases it has no causes and patient are fine after starting treatment
In my opinion beta blockers will help to dominate the cardiac frequency
I would be more helpful if you provide me the current treatment you are already taking or discuss with your own doctor about my opinion
Wish you good health and fast recovery
Hope my answer had helped you
Don't hesitate to contact me for further information or clarification
