Question 1

after a lot of tests, they said i have sinus tachycardia. resting heart rate has been 120+ for last 7 years. introvert, social anxiety, sedentary life style. can i workout? is it treatable? i can walk miles but breaks after 3-4 sets of stairs.

Accepted Answer

As a matter of fact: (my opinion only) EXERCISE properly SUPERVISED is the best TREATMENT for your condition! A well conditioned heart slows its rate!  Exercise also decreases "nervousness" and when accompanied by a goal oriented program and a good instructor increases concentration!!  ( Ask any athlete what I mean!!)
Hope this helps and GOOD LUCK
BE WELL!
