Hello. I Read and understand your question . I try my level best to solve it. As you have taken cipro , it is possible to get increase heartbeat. Do not worry about it, it settle down to normal within few days. I advise you that do not concentrate on heart rate, also donot think about it. Divert your thoughts towards other thing, by doing things which you like so much. Enjoy the things you do and do not think about heart rate. It comes to normal. I hope my advice will help you a lot Thanks and Regards Dr Vijay
