How Can A High Heart Rate With Palpitations Be Treated?
I am 29 years old & my heart rate has been 110 beats per minute the last 3 times I have been to the doctor. They put me on a blood pressure medicine to slow my heart rate down, cause I could just be sitting there & my heart races. I am a little overweight. I am 5'4 & 243lbs
