Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I have loss of appetite, occasional nausea, and vomiting. My heartbeat was 81 beats per minute last night after vomiting. The loss of appetite and occasional nausea have been going on for about three years. Rapid heartbeat is only recent.
Kindly help.
Thank you.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I read your query and understood your concern.
There are a few questions before giving my clinical assessment.
Is there any history of eating out lately, or is there any history of taking reheated meals at home, especially stored food, or is there any history of taking regular painkillers, especially in the NSAIDS (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory) category, which can cause stomach upset and gastritis?
If the above history is positive, then try to avoid eating out, reheated meals, and painkillers, especially of this category.
I suggest you start with simple stomach medicines, which include:
The heartbeat you mentioned is within the normal range. You should monitor it more frequently. A rapid heart rate is usually categorized as a heart rate above 100. Technically, heart rate is a dynamic measurement and can fluctuate with overall health status.
For example, if you are in distress, it can go up, such as in the case of nausea and vomiting, and under normal circumstances, it will return to a normal heart rate. When you have a heart rate above 100 or experience palpitations without any obvious cause, then it can be categorized as abnormally high.
I do not think a previous coronavirus infection about three years ago is related to your current symptoms.
I hope that this answers your query.
Kindly follow up if you have more doubts.
Thank you.
